Another problem with the windmill turbines are the NIMBYs.

Yup!

Cut the crrap. It be the naysayers that could have discouraged invention of the telephone and hydroelectric power, not to mention air conditioning and anesthesia and surgeons washing there hands after they got off their horses and entered the operating theaters, for example!
You guys are Bad boys! I want those dammwindmills!

Check out a lopifit walking electric bicycle. I can't post a link with my phone. They look like a great city option.

Thanx for not spelling it out. I'm sure you know you're mistaking gynecomastia for pom-poms.

Not only do they produce electricity, sometimes you can roast marshmallows with them.

Stuff happens, but I betcha we keep trying.

Don't forget, we went from the ironclad Merrimack to the solid iron Titanic and kept right on truckin' .

Windmills tend to leave bird and bat carcasses under the area their blades traverse. This leads to a rise in the local population of coyotes, feral cats, raccoons, skunks and rats.

Fire departments have found that solar panels continue to produce power when the structure under them is on fire and are restricting the efforts of their crews when solar panels are present.

Dams with water wheels and turbine powered generators have been the source of power for over 2000 years. Lately we've been removing them to restore local fish populations.

I vaguely remember that there was a movement to build nuclear reactors that used a less toxic element (Thorium?) than the Uranium or Plutonium common today.

At least you will know where they are congregating and then can actually respond - coyotes are on the rise, but cats and the rest are prey.....

I keep hearing that but they still seem to have no problem with buildings that are on fire and the power is still flowing in from the pole....but then my place is rural and when the fire department wants directions to the fire, they get told, "look for the glow".

I thought they had been installing ladders for the fish? Can't take some out - both flood control and water supply.....

Not so much a tox thing with LE materials and Th as much a reactor that did not use fuel that could used for weapons or could be used to produce weapons grade products... Thing is that causes the US the big issue is that we do not recycle our fuel and just store it - it could be recycled with ~90-95% efficiency - the rest of the world does just that while we plod along.....

Some people have begun to ask:
Should Pennywise and the Babadook be dating?

Jus sayin.

[rogruth]

The Babadook movie is on TV this evening. Coincidence?
