    Hence, the comic is called “looks good on paper,” because we know those things are hardly ever moving.

    I actually think they periodically fire up some engines in those things once in a while just so people will see that they really move.

    Yeah, me and my lying eyes. They are moving, on average, 20-25% of the time, and the nature of electricity basically dictates that production is only useful if it is immediately consumed. I’ve seen dozens of them in upstate NY, time and time again, just idling by….http://www.akdart.com/wind.html

    I’m all for clean and abundant energy, btw. I think tidal, combined with modern nuclear, is more of the way to go than those farcical hoaxes on the hills.

    I laughed when I saw it and then made the mistake of reading the comments. I still think it’s funny.
