It's used up where I've seen it. you can't use modern irrigation systems around it, you can't build modern cities around it. You can maybe do some second thing in a half-assed form around it, but that's like saying that because you could play handball on the wall around a nuclear powerplant the land isn't used up. The bottom line isn't cost perkwhr, it's also acrage per kwhr, and I know the equation well enough to know that as the technology currently stands windpower is a joke and needs to be retracted to the experimental stage (along with solar) until some big leaps are made.

You've shown me that you really don't know much at all about modern wind power. I see a lot of that around here so don't feel too bad.
