I'm sure many of you will find this article intersting. It made me realize how complicated things really have become.

When Rich and I took our motorcycle trip around WV this fall, we saw some of the wind turbines along a ridge near Davis. I thought they were really cool looking. I suspect people who are against them, would be against just about any change in what they see. Should let them see some of the devastation from the mountain top removal. Might change their minds about the turbines. They might also want to read The Weather Makers by Tim Flannery. http://www.amazon.com/Weather-Makers-Ch ... F8&s=books
