I'm having a hard time buying into the Chinese solar plant theory though. It doesn't add up and for several reasons.

1) If the Chinese wanted to spend 5 billion dollars on a solar farm they could afford to buy some cheap desert land.

2) Locating the plant near Laughlin makes sense. There was a coal fired power generating facility near Laughlin that was shot down in 2005. Locating a new facility near there gives access to the power grid without stringing new power lines.

For reference ...

Uh, iirc it is more like 5 Million for 38 Million of land, FH.

If being stupid allows me to believe in Him, I'd wish to be a retard. Eisenhower and G Washington should be good company.
