<DIV><FONT size=2>Our production <EM>schedule</EM> has been in tatters - lowered
by perhaps 30% because of the rain.... can't plan, can't do. Then I pay
overtime on good days to (try to)</FONT><FONT size=2> catch up.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>We have a number of systems online and I had not thought to
actually review and compare from this year to last. I'll let ya
know.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>We'll get a call like - "My bill is higher than last year
(edison has a bar graph of monthly consumption for the past 13 months) and
I'd like you to look at my system" or My meter is not going backwards, should I
call edison?" The weather is so consistently wet this
winter (think Hilo) that we usually just need to ask-</FONT></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">On
the Big Island of Hawaii, we’ve had a very active volcano doing its thing
since 1983. With the normal trade winds, the vog (volcanic smoke + fog)
gets blown south past the volcano, around the south tip of the island and
<B><I>then back up</I></B> along the west side of the island. Which
means that Kona-side residents can be in a yucky vog zone for days and
sometimes longer. Think L.A. on a smoggy summer day. And as far as
percentage decrease in solar output, I really have little accurate
clue.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
