Damn, FoxNews is on their game today! These are some awesome scoops! In case you haven’t noticed, [...]

I received some rather heated emails in response to a post I made on a wind energy forum. In the post, I gave my response to a (rather lengthy) post calling for government mandated alternative energy goals, subsidies for alternative energy, mandatory replacement projects, and in general complaining that their pet project/business wasn’t being paid for with tax money [...]
