Archive for March, 2009

I just heard that some environmentalists (mentalists) drove two and a half hours to protest the building of windmills (turbines for wind power) in an area of Oregon that has 20% unemployment (because of them against tree cutting), because power lines (to where they live) will have to cross a wildlife preserve, and the propellers "might" be a danger to avian life.
