    This taco world site Amazes me time & time again!!! just read the thread on peoples melting mirrors & grills-all plastic surfaces. the discovery was the reflective sunlight off of the energy efficiant windows. I've seen this first hand on the east coast, a costal property that has diffenate burn marks on the grass from the sun beams reflected off the windows. AND as the thread went on to say, its reflections have also melted vinyl siding off adjacent houses. I've Seen this First hand! I asked this one neighbor," did you have a bar-b-q next to your siding"? it was all melted. only thing it was up off the ground 10 ft.! and there it was. the reflection off of these energy eff. windows. ANOTHER Problem Solved thanx to taco world!

    I would put up Solar panels to suck up all the reflective glass rays and sell it to the Electric company for a profit
