I love Texas. I don't know why...the weather in places suits me...I like the ability to, in places, be able look across the plains and see nothing but nothing till the earth curves over. Last time I was out there...it was pot marked with these huge wind farms. You talk about something ugly. Hundreds of windmills blocking the scenery. Most people do not realize how big these things are. They're huge. One blade can be 150 feet long. Longer.
I don't have a problem if someone or a group of people want to put up a wind farm...that's their business and this is America. If they can make bucks by doing this...more power to em. No pun intended.
Where I have a problem is when, as is the case in a lot of instances, the government subsidizes these projects.
I've said before...I don't care what we use to make energy...I don't care if someone finds a way to burn cow poop in cars...so long as it is not anymore expensive than gasoline. The only problem, at this and for many, many years to come hydrocarbons are going to be hard to beat.
