Resolved Question: Geothermal heating/cooling systems are no longer experimental, as the article below, excerpted from the Albuqu?

Geothermal heating/cooling systems are no longer experimental, as the article below, excerpted from the Albuquerque Journal, clearly shows. Most people seem unaware that geothermal sources of energy can be used in many areas, not just where hot springs are located! Were you aware that geothermal options like this existed? "Albuquerque Journal Thursday, August 13, 2009 Community College using deep tubes to heat, cool site By Rosalie Rayburn Journal Staff Writer Central New Mexico Community College is counting on the earth to heat and cool its first Rio Rancho campus building. A Texas-based drilling company recently began boring a series of holes into the dirt on the construction site where CNM will house classrooms for nursing, computer, information technology and liberal arts courses. The 300-feet-deep holes will carry a network of polyethylene tubes that will circulate water into the building. Engineers who designed the system determined that the earth's temperature at that depth is a steady 68 degrees. Water circulating from the holes will help raise the building's temperature on frigid winter days and lower it during the heat of summer. CNM officials picked the geothermal temperature control system over conventional heating and cooling technology because it offers a cost effective way to avoid using fossil fuels, said Luis Campos, CNM's director of physical plant. Geothermal heating and cooling technology has been around for at least 30 years, but it's gained popularity in recent years. The city halls in Rio Rancho and Las Cruces and the new V. Sue Cleveland High School all use geothermal systems, said Jeff Greenup of Loop Tech Inc. Greenup is overseeing the Loop Tech crew that's drilling the wells for the CNM building. Loop Tech has done drilling for geothermal systems throughout the Midwest and at several sites in New Mexico, including Las Cruces city hall and the new high school in Rio Rancho."This is for class... for people who don't know abou it. Explain your reaction to the article as if you were new to the idea? more

McCain, Obama scramble to shift economic message GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - With economic anxiety rising, Republican John McCain and Democrat Barack Obama scrambled Wednesday to adjust their messages to connect more directly with financially struggling voters. Obama talks directly into the camera in a new, two-minute television ad on how he'll fix an economy in which "paychecks are flat and home values are falling." McCain and running mate Sarah Palin softened opposition to government bailouts, accepting the U.S. takeover of the nation's largest insurer as unfortunate but necessary to protect ordinary Americans. "The shot that has been called by the Feds — it's understandable but very, very disappointing that taxpayers are called upon for another one," Palin told reporters during a visit to delicatessen in Cleveland. Both McCain and Obama advocated cracking down on freewheeling Wall Street practices and for tough new regulations on financial institutions. Obama ridiculed McCain's calls for more regulation as an eleventh-hour conversion for one who has long championed deregulation. Too many in Washington and on Wall Street "weren't minding the store. They sat on their hands until it was too late," Obama told a rally in Elko, Nev. He challenged McCain's vow to take on the "old boy's network...He hasn't taken them on for the last 26 years." The increased emphasis on the faltering economy came on a day when stocks resumed their downward plunge following Tuesday night's government takeover of American International Group Inc. with an $85 billion two-year loan from the Federal Reserve in return for a majority stake in the company. "The focus of any such action should be to protect the millions of Americans who hold insurance policies, retirement plans and other accounts with AIG," McCain said in a statement. "We must not bail out the management and speculators who created this mess." The turnabout came a day after McCain strongly opposed additional government relief and praised the government's decision not to rescue Lehman Brothers after it had intervened to help investment bank Bear Stearns and mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. His Democratic rival addressed the AIG takeover in Elko, saying the government acted "to prevent an even larger crisis." Arguing that the U.S. housing market was "in a shambles," Obama said it was important now for the Federal Reserve to ensure that families with AIG insurance are protected. "It must not bail out the shareholders or the management of AIG that were making big profits when times were good." Obama, in his own change of tactics, speaks directly to voters in a new commercial to air Wednesday on national cable and in some battleground states. "In the past few weeks, Wall Street's been rocked as banks closed and markets tumbled. But for many of you — the people I've met in town halls, backyards and diners across America — our troubled economy isn't news," Obama says in the ad, taped Tuesday in a living room-like setting. "Paychecks are flat and home values are falling. It's hard to pay for gas and groceries and if you put it on a credit card, they've probably raised your rates," he adds. Obama also laments rising health insurance costs. He details major elements of his economic plan, including its proposal for a $1,000 tax cut for working couples, steps to reduce reliance on imported oil, bringing a "responsible end" to the war in Iraq and ending an "anything goes culture on Wall Street." "Doing these things won't be easy. But we're Americans," Obama says. Obama also discussed the AIG takeover McCain campaigned in Michigan, one of the states hardest hit by eight straight months of rising unemployment. At the General Motors Orion assembly plant, he told workers: "We are going to fight the special interests and corruption in Washington. We are going to fight the greed and irresponsibility on Wall Street." While both presidential candidates have called for tougher regulation of financial institutions and cracking down on Wall Street abuses, neither has come up with a detailed plan, nor gone so far as to endorse a proposal for the kind of massive federal intervention that took place in the savings and loan crisis of the late 1980s and the early 1990s. Then, the Resolution Trust Corp. was established by Congress to acquire the real estate, mortgages and other assets of thousands of failed S&Ls. Some lawmakers suggest such a strategy may be needed to stabilize financial markets, rather than the ad hoc interventions the government has been doing. A day after extending a helping hand to AIG, the White House on Monday called the U.S. economy a mixed picture that would ultimately weather the current turmoil. Press secretary Dana Perino said help for other endangered companies would be considered on a "case-by-case basis." Both candidates have been adjusting to keep pace with a fast-changing situation in which financial markets have been buffeted by one j more
