"Apparently these ceiling fans hold up better under ice that the wind turbines."

Texas must have bought some surplus wind turbines rated for south Florida temperatures.

BTW, I've seen the huge blades being hauled on Texas railroads, each the length of multiple flatbed rail cars. I don't know what happens if there are any significant turns in the track.

Many of those wind turbines are China owned.

I've seen the huge blades being hauled on Texas railroads, each the length of multiple flatbed rail cars. I don't know what happens if there are any significant turns in the track.

I watched a video on that. Seems one end of the blade is fixed to a rotating pedestal on one car, and the other end of the blade slides in a rotating cradle that lets it slide back and forth as the two (or three?) flatbed cars negotiate the turns.
