This is the stuff my high school girlfriend's hyper-conservative parents would spit all over the windshield while driving us places. Didn't expect those memories to surface in a HN thread.
I'm hoping there is an invisible /s there.
It seems that some solar energy mills act as 'furnaces' that reflect massive amounts of heat and can burn birds and anything flying over them, yes.
