// The weather has become truly bad with strong winds and a steady downpour. It is truly testing our home on how we can be scant with our energy use yet still attempt to condition the home. We've been very proud of our success so far, but the judging spreads have been so tight that we haven't been able to pull away. I believe we've now dipped into 2nd place because of our energy sacrifices, and it will be a real tussle to try and take back first.
But there is hope! Look at that picture: That is a young student looking at our kid's action plan for sustainability. There is no bigger success than perking the interest of the young minds of our future. So, I think no matter what is announced tomorrow, the solar decathlon's victory is already official.
