Solar Richard Profiled in NYT (27. October 2007, 12:43 by Erik) ~ Here comes the sun ...
The New York Times calls Richard Thompson, AKA Solar Richard, a “certified character,” in their profile of the Tacoma man published today.
It’s a nice article about Solar Richard, and we appreciate the linking of green power with Tacoma. Particular positive attention is focused on the effort to light the new Narrows Bridge with solar power:
At Mr. Thompson’s urging, the new mile-long Tacoma Narrows Bridge is on its way to being lighted with solar power, a project toward which the state has contributed $1.5 million. And if all goes as planned, there will be electricity left over to feed back into the city’s power supply.
Kudos to our own Solar Richard for helping keep Tacoma on the map.
