If there ever was an ideal location for solar power, Barking Sands is IT !! NEVER a shortage of sun there !! As far as Mr.Negative's comments on the anti-missile missile goes, I believe it took a lot of money, a few lost lives, and a long time to get to he moon and back. That Naval Undersea Warfare facility provides MANY high paying, secure, beneficial jobs to Kauai. I'd love to work there AND live on the West Side of Kauai !! Ain't many better places on earth than Polihale, Queen's Beach, Kinikini, and Waimea town !!
