” There’s a huge windfarm ... I just can’t see that they amount to anything useful. “

Well, they’re about to do the big wind farm in Nantucket Sound (the one Teddy Kennedy objected to because he could see it from HIS house), and it will double the cost of electricity to the Cape Cod consumers it serves. How can you say it doesn’t amount to anything? It’s redistributing wealth, isn’t it?

LOL! Der Fuhrer’s Voltswagen doesn’t seem to be as big a seller as the other Fuhrer’s “Beetle”.

The lady here says Chevy BIC is an ideal name. Its a disposable car anyway.
