Marc Posted September 30, 2010 Report Posted September 30, 2010 Solar convergence It's not all one piece of concave glass such as a window pane but it's the same principle and it's on a much larger scale. Marc
hausdok Posted September 30, 2010 Report Posted September 30, 2010 It's not all one piece of concave glass such as a window pane but it's the same principle and it's on a much larger scale. Marc Uh, want to explain that for the benefit of those of us who aren't so erudite? ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike
Erby Posted September 30, 2010 Report Posted September 30, 2010 Probably about the story on the news this morning about a hotel in Vegas that shines solar convergence on it's swimming pool. Kind of like the windows we see putting solar convergence on the neighbor's house melting the vinyl siding! http://abcnews.go.com/Travel/las-vegas- ... d=11760093 -

Marc Posted October 1, 2010 Author Report Posted October 1, 2010 Solar convergence Thanks guys. I must have missed a step in posting the link. Marc
Erby Posted October 6, 2010 Report Posted October 6, 2010 Got a phone call from Las Vegas later that morning asking if what I'd posted on "uh, let's see, Inspectors Journal website" was indeed true that solar convergence had melted vinyl siding on houses in Kentucky. Yup, it was one of their reporters reading Inspectors Journal. http://www.lvrj.com/news/media-warms-up ... 38834.html Guess whose website comes up second if you Google "solar convergence". Hint: It's someplace y'all know and love. -
