My investment in this stock is related to my investment in UGTH - the desire to eliminate the U.S. dependence on foreign oil. Geothermal heat pumps are 50-70% more effective than oil or gas-fired heating systems and the efficiency of these systems has improved to the point that backup heat source needs are almost a thing of the past. Basically, I've junked the oil-fired furnace in my basement in favor of a geothermal heat pump. In addition to heating my home very comfortably, it also cools it -- a thing that the @#$# plumber who was hired to install my heating system in 1972 didn't think about. So there, Middle East, go eat worms.
