Hey, I wouldn't want a wooded lot abutting my land to be developed either, but I have to laugh at the guy saying:

>"I was horrified, I like solar energy, I think it is a good idea, but this is not the place to do it," Troy said.

The very definition of NIMBY.

>"Fifty feet from your property line, having a huge power plant go in is definitely not what people want in this neighborhood or what we moved here for," Luallen said.

We could... build a wind turbine there instead! Seriously, a solar array has to be one of the lowest impact things you could have installed next to your house.

I don't have much sympathy for anyone, including myself, if you're pulling power from the grid, but you don't like the idea of having solar installed next door...
