Anybody got any storage sheds w/o electricity that could use a little light during the daytime?

This is the kind of human ingenuity which gives me faith in mankind's survivability.

I forget the source but it made the rounds a year or two ago. It is an absolutely brilliant solution and is so simple.

Just awesome.

Wow. I could have used this in Nicaragua a couple of years ago. Too bad I am not intelligent enough to think of something like this on my own. Awesome.
