re: #122 Pie-onist Overlord
One of the nicest things about driving to Toronto is driving through the wind orchards. Those wind engines are beautiful and majestic. I don’t understand why some people complain they are “unsightly.”
While Googling for pictures of the wind orchards I came across a bunch of websites which are totally hating on the wind orchards.
Also these things are freaking HUGE. We passed a convoy on the 401 carrying a turbine blade. It was being carried on a special hauler that had to be as large as several 18-wheeler container trucks end to end.
I worry about them killing birds. Chicago is on a flyway and we have tens of thousands of waterfowl passing through in the fall. I’m not keen on hundreds of them being killed by turbine blades.
