Summary:
Many people are working on ways to generate
alternative energy for their home. But many
states haven't caught up to these new ways
to make power. Lester Graham finds out the
latest on "net metering." That's when homeowners
sell energy back to the grid.
And... toxic pond scum. Amy Quinton
looks into a type of algae that grows
on lakes. Scientists have known it
could be dangerous. But now researchers
are investigating a possible connection
to Lou Gehrig's disease.
