I would prefer that ‘neither rain nor snow nor gloom of night’ interrupt my power supply, even though it may or may not effect my mail delivery.

This is not prudent, tearing down a dam today for the promise of wind tomorrow. Everybody knows that global warming is decreasing the amount of wind available for wind farms. And, as we add more and more windmills, we will use up this natural resource.

When the dams are gone, and the winds die down, people will have to rely on cutting down trees for heat...a "destructive evironmental cycle".

Lord Zero’s Great Lakes Czar is president of the Alliance for the great lakes. Dam removal is one of their big things. Lying is apparently another one of the things they do.

I read that they had restored a destroyed trout habitat by removing a dam. Funny thing is that I used to catch trout both above and below the dam in that so called “destroyed habitat”.

Replace what works with that which does not. Nice going. BTW--Kittery, Maine has a wind turbine which was supposed to generate 50KW for the waste transfer station. They shut it down earlier this month because they were getting LESS THAN 15 PERCENT OF EXPECTED ENERGY from it, and the company which installed the turbine has to reimburse the town for nearly 200K...

On the one hand, the Left talks about building a national grid so that energy thaty is produced way over here can be transmitted and used way over there. And at the same time they say that we now have plenty of wind energy here so why the heck should we bother to have hydroelectric power in the same place? We don't need it any more! Shut it down!

They can't be this dumb or inconsistent by accident. This is an effort to destroy our ability to have sufficient energy. They really do want us living in caves, eating berries. A nice, sustainable population of about 5 million humans. Bowing down to an idol with big ears.

How do they plan to replace the great source of fresh water that dams provide?

I'd love to see how all the environuts get by in southern California if they were to take out Hoover dam.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

We’ve got a good one here at Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri. It’s been generating power since 1930.

[Sacajaweau]

Absolutely dumb!! Wind was to provide a NEW source....

Say WA? Evergreen State ping

Quick link: WA State Board

FReepmail sionnsar if you want on or off this ping list.

Ping sionnsar if you see a Washington state related thread.

As they destroy the breadbasket of WA state....and those who live in the “red” part of the state.

Sooner or later environmentalist will discover that windmills chop up birds and insects including those on threatened or endangered lists and they will be clamoring to have the windmills shut down.

Leftists do not want cheap, abundant energy. It fuels capitalism.
