Kenny,

Just wondering if you also use solar (or other renewable) power in your house.

On a somewhat related topic, does anybody here know anything about geo-thermal energy for residential use?

This sounds like a great idea.
So far the only whacko thing I do is the hybrid car.

Solar panels are a little on the expensive side. Here's another method of making electricity from solar:

It could probably be used with geothermal as well - believe the turbines used in this type of solar are also used to generate electricity from pressurised natural gas.
