I suggest we use the windbag teddy kennedy to operate these off shore windmills with his tired tirads. Lower energy bills and ted out of the senate, A win-win situation!

There's something wrong with a state that keeps sending this turd to the senate.

They could call it the Mary Jo Kopechne Wind Farm.

You know, for the life of me, I can't figure out what "NIMBY" is. Totally ready to thump my forehead and shout "Of course!" once somebody clues me in...

Somebody should ask him for suggestions on where he thinks a wind farm would be OK. I suspect he can't do it without displacing some of his constituents.

Like most everything else, I'm not read up on the fine points of this proposed wind farm. If I lived on Cape Cod, I might not like the view either, assuming you can see much of it from 5 miles away especially when there is fog, but you have to consider those who would benefit.
Just how large an area can be serviced by the power generated, part of a state, a few cities, or great parts of New England.
The reason I'm asking is that there are people in northern New England who are hurting especially badly from energy prices. Whether or not they get government help, if this project, or one like it further north would help them to be more self-sufficient, I think it would be a good thing for the country and all concerned.
Their selfish, self-centered interest turns me off. We all have to put up with things we'd rather not have for the good of others.

Anywhere, but not near him.
He is against personal responsibility for his own actions.

At peak output, the project would generate more than 400 megawatts of electricity, enough to meet the needs of some 400,000 homes on Cape Cod and the nearby islands.

Dorchester or Roxbury would be fine with the pig, not that he would publicly say so tho.

assuming you can see much of it from 5 miles away5 miles visibility across the ocean is no problem on a reasonably clear day, depending upon how tall these windmills will be. I used to sail off Mass, NH, and Maine (and elsewhere in the Northeast) and I don't doubt they'd be visible from the shore and certainly while sailing in Nantucket Sound.
