Montgomery County Department of Permitting Services (DPS) has launched eSolar, an automated permitting application meant to streamline the permitting process for residential rooftop solar systems by approved installers. 

The program integrates app approved third-party certified documents for the solar systems through DPS’ ePlans.

“Montgomery County is committed to reducing our carbon footprint and encourages everyone to invest in renewable and sustainable energy sources,” says Marc Elrich, Montgomery County county executive.

“eSolar is a win for Montgomery County homeowners who plan to add solar panels to their residential rooftops. Instead of applications sitting in a queue waiting for approval, this automated permitting tool will expedite reviews, reducing delays and streamlining the permitting process. This will save time and less waiting leads to more solar on rooftops and a greener Montgomery County.”

Licensed contractors are eligible for the program with a valid Maryland Home Improvement Commission license. Projects must conform with the eligibility checklist that is posted on the DPS website.

As suggested at left, Rush Limbaugh made a fortune by sewing hatred into American lives, and he was incredibly good at it.  He convinced tens of millions of U.S. citizens that anything that would not make rich white males richer was communism.

Following in his footsteps certainly does appear to be an essential guarantee of wealth.

Charlie Kirk, as an example, was a college dropout who was on a conveyor belt to selling used cars until it dawned on him that selling hate was one hell of a lot easier that hiding defects from car-buyers.

How Human Beings form Societies

The words at left come from late-20th Century philosopher and ethnobotanist Terence McKenna.

His observation here echoes those of many other intellectuals who have pondered who it’s possible that an extremely intelligent species can make such poor decisions when it comes to governance.

The problem, I believe, is that intelligence isn’t the only characteristic–or even the main one–that drives the way we elect our leaders and get along with others.  Our tribalism and greed are far more important to how human beings behave in groups.
