Sounds like it will be really neat.  Here in San Diego I've always thought that
it would be great to see some PV implemented on much of the tribes' land, but
perhaps more of this is happening than I'm aware.  It's my perception that many
of the tribes, as a whole, are making some money from the casino business.  In
so doing they seem to be erecting some pretty impressive structures.  I wonder
if these wouldn't be an opportunity, if they were designed-in from the get-go,
to put some solar on the roofs or nearby, perhaps even in a super-attractive
solar-shingles way rather than in any way that might detract from a high-profile
in-the-public-eye design.  San Diego as a whole has not been that smart about
taking advantage of all the solar energy incident here.  At least, I haven't
seen it, although the mayor says he is gung-ho for it, and at the same time we
were among the first hit by the electricity crisis... so you'd think we'd be
busy hedging our bets and building capacity.
