[SustainableTompkins] looking ahead to 2050

The solar panel question raised lots of questions about what the world 
will be like a few decades from now.  I've been pondering the same kinds 
of questions for a while, and thanks to a couple of weeks of insomnia, 
found the time to write them up.

The first one starts at my house near the 13/366 intersection in Dryden 
- others are all over the state, in different voices from different 
perspectives.  I've tried to mix optimism and bleakness (usually in 
different stories), along with conventional and unconventional 
development stories.  I don't think these stories represent my personal 
forecast, but I tried to ensure that they would be plausible.

If anyone here has suggestions or even stories they'd like to submit 
please let me know.  Otherwise, just enjoy the stories!

Thanks,
Simon St.Laurent
