I agree--I would much rather see an open field than a solar farm. (Also, I appreciate that you focus on a fair, reasonably objective point.)

But on the other hand, I think solar panels on many homes look just as good as asphalt shingles, and solar panels on flat roof commercial buildings look much better than most of the things they replace.

Plus, all these solar installations displace distant oil rigs and coal mines, and improve local air and water quality.
