    I work in LEAFHouse, which won 2nd place in the 2007 Solar Decathlon, and is now owned by the AIA Potomac Valley Chapter. We get visitors every week from all over the U.S. who are still curious to learn more about "that great solar house that was on the National Mall." People need to walk through sustainable homes before they can visualize living in one. And the Mall is the single best place to capture citizens' imaginations for how we can live more sustainably in the future.

    Please do not take away such a great event! It would be one thing to move the event to another location if its true meaning was to restore the grassland at the national mall but to bring in a book club event for the same time frame is appalling.

    There is no place that is more appropriate than on the National Mall in front of the Smithsonian, which celebrates American science and technology.

    This has historically been a highly recognized and well attended event. It is an excellent opportunity to push solar to the forefront of people's minds. It would be unfair to all the teams who have been preparing all these months to change the venue on them now.

    The National Mall is a place that celebrates the great minds of the past. Let it also celebrate the great minds of our future.

    At a time when our country is in need of alternative energy progress, it seems like madness for the National Park service to stop such a important event for students, citizens and tourists, alike. We need these bright minds at work, and this is a great opportunity to compete and expand their knowledge. Of all places, Washington D.C., should be encouraging and showcases such talent!
