Not that a solar/hydrogen-powered house in New Jersey has much to do with the 2007 mayor's race in Philadelphia, except that the issue of sustainability has been getting a lot of support on this blog, but this is a pretty cool story.
I think the thing to take away from this story is the need for government officials, included high-level elected officials like the mayor, to be open to new technologies and ways of doing things. As we get more exposure to the candidate and potential candidates for mayor, we're going to have to listen carefully to find out which of them has this quality.

If you're talking about new technologies like waterless urinals, you might want to look for a candidate that won't roll over for the trades unions.
