The house has an energy efficient wide-screen TV and kitchen appliances. Not bad for a self-suffient home, although I'm sure it's not the best looking home on the street.

Very cool idea, and nice to see an elected official put more than his mouth behind an issue. So tired of seeing politicians arrive in a big SUV or a Limo to cast their vote on conservation/environmental issues.

i doubt its as good as his hotel room lol, if hes in the general assembley!!

But as biomark said, It's nice to see an offical take some action for once, and do what he's getting other's to do rather than just stand at the sidelines watching.

Kudos to you Frank Wagner
