Here we are, trying to improve solar cells to avoid global warming, and dissidents like you want to add a sun to the solar system.

  It's not the solar system's fault that the inhabitants of one of the bodies in the system are bad stewards. Also, if you have 30% effeciency from the light of one sun, wouldn't the additional light also improve the solar cell since there is now more light to get 30% out of? I mean, more is always better, right?

    I know your comment is in jest, but in point of fact the additional heat from another star would almost certainly reduce the efficiency of the panels.

  It'd be twice (>1<2) the energy
