the Solar Sizzler: an affordable solar cooker

Treehugger loves writing about solar cookers. Here is one that has a special feature: you can buy it online and it is really cheap. It mounts on a camera tripod and comes apart so that you can fit it in a knapsack and take it camping. It's certainly not the most sophisticated cooker we have seen but at less than US$50 the price is toasty. It might make a good telescope at night, too. ::Solar Sizzler
