Clarifying my statement about " we need to get wind turbine price tag to include pollution mitigation at bare minimum" in response to V. Burachynsky's response: the "we" was an inadvertent slip. I work with many environmental types and have for years who have pushed to get the true cost of producing and using nonrenewables included in the price tag so that the pollution results, and greenhouse results, were reflected in the actual cost. Therefore, it would seem correct to me that the same be done for the resulting renewable "preferable" technologies like wind. And Nicholas Thompson -- I had no problem understanding your terminology. China of course needs to also start placing tax burdens on companies that cause pollution within their boundaries, just like the US needs to reflect pollution cleanup costs through tax burdens. Peggy
