Why do you like wind? I have never seen that a windmill can even pay for itself for the energy used to produce the windmill.

I don't know why I like them. 35-40 years ago I saw the Boeing Mod 2 blade windmill in a brief article in Popular Science and I've liked them ever since.

I've read that energy payback is about 8 months.
