[cool] what next?
I love the part where the developer, "cautions against pouring ordinary cooking oil on a roof in an attempt to achieve a similar energy-saving effect. That's because ordinary cooking oil won't turn into a polymer, doesn't contain the key ingredient for controlling infrared light levels, and could well pose a fire hazard for the building." I guess it's necessary to be careful in case somebody skims the article a little too fast.
