Solar reactor that works at night. No, really.

Oh, just wait until the coal lobby hears about that one -- one of their so-called "selling points" for touting the superiority of coal over everything else is "solar doesn't work at night".  This'll send them into a tizzy until they find a new misrepresentation.

Of course, the largest draw upon the electrical grid is when the factories are running full-tilt in the daytime, so "not working at night" really doesn't matter. How long have people been buying that line?
