Solar Power, Voter Stories widget, Primaries and RFK

Of note for a Tuesday morning:

-solar power getting more attention, again, as oil prices soar. wired.com has an update on investment, including Google's backing of eSolar which is
a company whose basic solar power strategy -- using sunlight-reflecting mirrors to generate steam -- was all but abandoned in the 1980s, and has recently recently caught investors' attention again.
Go solar...

-hullabaloo - digby offer information on a voter story widget:
The VoterStory web widget is programmed to collect and classify voter complaints in real time across the Internet and will provide a data feed of complaints that can be addressed in real time by Voter Protection groups who partner with VoterStory.
Hope it helps. Voting, as much of it as we've done, should be fairly routine, shouldn't it?

-people in PA are voting. Our turn coming up. In the RFK book I'm reading, Hoosiers are about to go to the polls and give Bobby a victory. That would be May 7, 1968. He has a little less than a month to live.
