I, too find them mesmerising and elegant. <br /><br />Bernard Ingham, Thatcher&#39;s former press-secretary, once slammed them in a national newspaper as unsightly &#39;bog-brushes&#39;, But then he was employed by a major oil company at the time.Fat Controllerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09041653310357187641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527870095382449976.post-29371541683223020502009-09-20T12:42:42.611+01:002009-09-20T12:42:42.611+01:00In Germany wher I&#39;ve just been on a very long train ride they are everywhere.<br />I do not see what the problem is, with them. But then maybe the people who are protesting are also the people who drop litter for someone else to deal with.As for certain people it&#39;s always someone/ somewhere else.<br />xxFire Byrdhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05477692359400671374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527870095382449976.post-2193044076011775912009-09-18T12:45:59.734+01:002009-09-18T12:45:59.734+01:00I can&#39;t believe there aren&#39;t more of them, as you rightly say we have harnessed wind power for centuries in this country. We need to build a sustainable energy future... more wind please!!<br /><br />DxxxDazzahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12691040298320629603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527870095382449976.post-86956075506102527302009-09-16T01:15:15.601+01:002009-09-16T01:15:15.601+01:00We have the same bitching and moaning over here. I can&#39;t understand it either. I&#39;m not sure what states have them, mine doesn&#39;t. There was a wind farm in Australia that was far from ugly. It was actually fascinating. The cows that were roaming around the turbine bases didn&#39;t seem the least bit bothered by them. People here would rather build oil drilling rigs in the ocean. It&#39;s a mystery to me why the wind turbines are so hated (feared?).nitebyrdhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04967190902623933068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527870095382449976.post-48861963194420253342009-09-14T06:50:38.684+01:002009-09-14T06:50:38.684+01:00I find them mesmerising. I welcome anything that cuts down on resources we are currently overusing but then I don&#39;t live next to a huge plot of land where they could be placed. Perhaps I would feel differeently if I did.DJ Kirkbyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08481107164497582398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527870095382449976.post-86846620402495738282009-09-13T22:42:12.693+01:002009-09-13T22:42:12.693+01:00I find it baffling as well - I find them fascinating and elegant. I have had various arguments with people who do not believe that the planet is reacting to the pollution humans have imposed upon it. They believe it&#39;s just something that happens to the planet. Maybe it is, but do we want to risk it if not?? Anyway I&#39;m with you, they&#39;re real pretty xCheekyDanihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12354965748411194311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527870095382449976.post-78292458259911786502009-09-13T16:29:50.981+01:002009-09-13T16:29:50.981+01:00Perhaps they prefer the huge ugly soar panels which are such eyesores.Andrea Wh@teverhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10599330213866226904noreply@blogger.com
