Livin' it up in Ben Franklin's town. Riding a bike in the city; damn! watch out for those trolley tracks (slippery when wet!) Whoa, that's what a hoochie mama looks like! I don't think I'm in Delaware anymore.....

Website of the Week!

I've actually been reading www.sustainablebusiness.com since my college days (last century!).
Some of my bestesses of stockpickin's came from there too. BCON, CPST, ESLR and gasp, APWR, which is now known as GE Solar. APWR used to be the largest solar company in the world, then they went kaput b/c they didn't hedge against the rising silicon demand which the tech industry was sucking away. All you Delawareans better know your damn history and better know that for a while good ol' APWR put us on the total baddass/cutting edge map. Their old corporate headquarters is on 896 heading towards rte. 40. Here's a picture and history on their headquarters: http://www.edcmag.com/CDA/Archives/5e7d4d6efa697010VgnVCM100000f932a8c0____

One thing the article doesn't mention is that the building produces more electricity than it needs. Pretty cool..

Anyways for all you cutting edge enviro's, you should already know sustainablebusiness.com, but for all you budding enviros, take your time and get to know it.

Time for bed! racing season's getting sort of close...
