#2 georgia is about the worse place in the US for wind power

they already have a number of wind towers on hill ridges and people see with their own eyes that the blades don't revolve at all about half the time

#3 Wind and solar "energy" are economically unsustainable relying on subsidy.

The taxes needed to subsidise them kill many more jobs than any created in the "green" sector. This is amplified by the fact green subsidies effectively go to land-owners and so the money goes to title owners, not for work done.

Where's the graft in that? Oh, right....

#5 georgia is about the worse place in the US for wind power

That's all changed since Abrams came along.

#6 Make the windmill blades out of solar energy material. No wind you still got output (unless it's cloudy of course).

#7 The Future will wait not an hour!
Our Vision: Renewable Power!
The spin must be endless,
Maintained, when it's windless,
By batteries filling the tower.

#8 Make the windmill blades out of solar energy material.

Make them out of plutonium and you can use them as a radio-thermal generator when it's calm.

#9 It came from the future and sprawled in
A spot dark, Satanic (no Walden!)
And thoroughly shitty.
Though shiny and pretty,
It uglied the hell outta Malden.

#10 Oops. Damned thing's in Everett. Sorry, Malden (and Burg).

#13 Just came from the polling place. Record early voting turn-outs were being reported in districts south of Atlanta.

Thus neatly displaying the difference between poetic Truth and mere prosaid reality. ;-)

#15 We need giant hamster wheels used to generate power. If you are on welfare you can walk (or run) in the wheel for a certain amount of time each day to earn your check.

#17 AlanC & TW, thanks for your understanding. ;-) But I was even wronger! The turbine that so irked me apparently resides on a little tongue of Boston (Charlestown, even... why do I feel a "Man Who Never Returned" parody coming on?) that protrudes across the Malden Bridge, nowhere near Malden, which makes sense given how most things in New England named for a given town are off in other towns on the way there. Sigh... ya get a little distracted and suddenly the whole world is full of surprises. And superfluous commas.

Poems be poems.
Don't matter the latitude if you got the attitude.
