The wind turbines are going to prove to be absolute disasters.

If I had money to invest, I would look to start a company who specialize in taking them down. Because that’s what’s going to happen.

“Newer carbines are said to be less harmful to birds and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has asked power bosses to turn off the wind machines during times of heavy bird migration.”

Smaller calibre blades?

Also great news for women who've always wanted an eagle feather in their hair.

Yep. We have the salamander huggers in Austin... It used to be a nice place to go until the tree huggers from the West found a new place to destroy.

don't forget about the Golden Cheeked Warbler huggers. Can't cut down a cedar tree in Travis county that is more than six inches diameter at the four foot level.
