I thought they were going to make solar powered cars and solar power plants among other things. It was only nearly 10 years ago that solar power was the big thing. Just curious, why did it die out?

I am not sure if I posted this in the right category but can someone explain to me what the deal is with deja vu? What causes the brain to recognize familiarity in something that is new?

They keep laying eggs in my water butts. Adding washing up liquid does not help. If I had a tray of water and could attract them to lay eggs in that instead this tray could be cleaned out every day so the eggs would never mature. In tropical countrys this could be very good control as the mosquitoe could never develop imunity to being killed!

I was just thinking about this phenomenon, when I realized that being higher on a mountain would technically put you closer to the sun, so you would expect it to be hotter.
Could it be due to the fact that higher altitude means that the air is thinner?
I'm sure there is a simple answer, but what exactly is the reason behind this?
