    I was into DC 25 years ago when it was new and exciting, computers had limited power management and I got free electricity from the university.

    Now it’s old news, power management means DC causes CO2 emissions, and I pay the electric bill.

    I will not join any DC projects unless I generate surplus solar power. To do otherwise is ecologically irresponsible.
