Marc Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erby Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share 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 - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erby Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share 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. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
