You are trying to say that “windfarms” are some kind of early pioneering experiment ? - or what. Please explain. It has been demonstrated in Holland and UK, many years ago, that machinery to get energy from the wind - to do work for us - can be a worthwhile investment. Had it taken several hundred years to build the things to do 25 years worth of work, I think no-one would have bothered. So “got to start somewhere” is pretty lame kind of “reasoning”. Do you “drink”, or what ?

Dead right. I have tried to explain to “liberals” that current “Wind turbines” are in fact a new growth industry known as “energy laundering”, but sadly this involves numbers and percentages, and “Liberals” work on colours and shapes, it seems.
It is readily possible to get several whole percent from a sensible design of TAD, but governments prefer the 0.14%-odd of Large spiky rotating things.
Just keep your head stuck in a bucket and everything’s fine - if you’re “Liberal”.

Both Sunshine and Wind are distributed like consumers (us), so what purpose does it serve to place all the collectors miles away ? I don’t see anything wrong with Finding oneself a job - if it will benefit things - but Making work for oneself, when there is so much necessary work to do, I fail to grasp the benefit of. So “the grid will be enhanced” should this please us, or give us a future ? - or what ?

Allthough we may have problems if we have “wind”. We undoubtedly have a very large problem with people who spent vast “government money” on littering the world with machinery that takes several hundred years to supply the energy which went into building it. This is not journalistic exageration, it is physical fact of which not many appear either to be aware, or wish to be made aware-of. Meanwhile a sensible design of wind Turbine-Alternator can pay for itself in 20 years or less.

6 to 8 months !? 140-odd percent per annum ?!
Where do I buy one ? Does Northern Rock know about it ? How tragic they wasted all there money in real-estate elswhere. You really must spread this good news. What are your figures based upon ? I was at a public meeting July ‘05 Llandeilo uk where
Cost of proposed farm 150M
Annual income 000point.2M
Haven’t they improved a lot in only 4 years !

They had to use the coal to build the “Turbines” - if you recollect, steel and concrete needs coal and stuff to make. You will find that “Modern windfarms” are nothing less than an “energy laundering” industry - straightforward deception - if you get to physical facts rather than government and “industry” propaganda.
Sensible Wind-energy systems pay for themselves in 10 - 20 years, but are hardly visible. Email for picture.

I agree with most of your points here. Why people don’t see the benefit of collecting their own energy, on their own property is beyond me.

Something that should’ve been considered a long time ago are the massive areas of nice flat rooftop available on places like warehouses and grocery stores. With buildings like those I don’t see why it should be necessary to use land for solar farms. Wind farms I’ve never really been a fan of. Personal wind turbines do make sense though, for some people.

Using the word “liberal” makes you sound like an oxycodone addicted douche bag.

You are right, there is no need to waste the countryside - and then have to transport the (any) energy supplied by building extra “grid”. The only theory that springs to my mind for why the government does this is for the very fact that it IS so visible. It’s their “we are really concerned and “green”" statement. Or to put it the other way their “Energy laundering” deception driven by fossil and nuclear businesses. And “environMental” groups, of course.
What else could it be ?

Just using the word ? I never realised that.
Oxycodone is an opioid analgesic medication synthesized from opium-derived thebaine. (Or should that be Thebain-derived Opium ?) It was developed in 1916 in Germany, as one of several new pain-killers.
We must let all addicts know that when they need their fix, all they need do is say LIBERAL !
- but research will be required to discover how many times per mgm.
