    Winter days must be frighteningly short in Maine. Six hours of good sunshine? Three hours of real solar production?

     I'll bet the state is utterly beautiful with real people with functional brains. Cold weather seems to help with that.

    A lot less chores when you do not have to spend time with generators...
    The guy in Maine can't do what you can out here unless you are coastal.
