CoEvolution Quarterly, Fall 1977

“If you’re surprised to learn of all this don’t feel bad. The very firms who used to manufacture solar water heaters (and now make air conditioners and such) were astonished when Butti and Perlin turned up the solar material in their files. Perhaps this is how things become part of cultural memory, when it is recalled how they link to something that becomes important later.”
