They're one of a handful of terrestrial species that are truly *transparent*, neither scattering nor reflecting light. This aids in camouflage in any environment, an alternative to mimicry.

There are two ways of getting electricity in your house.
One you can own and use all year round. It costs less too while increasing the value of your home.
The other way is to rent your energy and pay whatever they bill you. Month after month after month after month…

Kind of curious if one of the unsaid ground rules with today's hearing was that the following terms / concepts could not be mentioned:
residential solar / distributed energy resources ( DERs) / antiquated grid / homeowner choices
If you really want to lower prices, might add these into the mix.

Energy + Consumer Protection, Technology and Utilities Committees hearing today in Harrisburg PA was worth listening too... Energy costs are a thing right now. It is easy to blame data centers and AI but their energy needs only point out how antiquated our grid is and why that is a problem.

Spain / Portugal blackout: grid operator knows what tripped and caused blackout. But rather than say grid is old and transmission is equally brittle, just blame solar. Grid is transmission and merchant generators ( think legacy ) and incapable of finding any fault in the status quo they preserve.
