Just as a general matter of correction, it's ANWR (Arctic National Wildlife

I work in a shop that repairs large industrial turbines.
In a few years, all of these windmills are going to have to be overhauled.
Whoever is there to get the contracts is going to make millions of
dollars. The cost of this will be paid by increases in electric bills.

I just read this interesting lead article.
It confirms what I already know to be true. That Harry Reed and Nancy Polosi
are both nuts, don't live in the real world and continually work against
proposals that are in the public interests. His idea of "gifts" to the oil
companies" is way off
Plus, I'm not sure you can get enough energy from turbines to power some of the
larger cities. But, I'm not a turbine expert, so what do I know.

How about oil shale and oil sands? We can just bring down mountains instead of

Quinta,
Wind turbines are being erected as fast as private enterprise can construct
them. I would believe that tax incentives are given by the federal government.
You regularly see them being transported on large flatbed trucks heading west
on Interstate 10 in the Houston area. The latest issue
Correct. Much of lignite and other minerals is close to the surface and the
most economical way to access it is strip mining which is disastrous to the
surface.

And Oil/gas has a much smaller impact foot print then most of the other
minerals that would be looked for/developed. Think about the impact of
mines.

Great article. I liked the fact that they kept emphasizing the benefits that
bats provide and some non-lethal methods to control them.
Bats are our friends!Louise
