German taxpayers on the hook...It’s NOT me for a change!
“Understandably, the projects investors are becoming increasingly nervous, which is why lawyers are now scrambling to pin the blame elsewhere.”
No, the investors who got in after the initial investors took their money and ran are getting nervous.
There is some german word that exists my feelings of watching this from afar, while drinking a beer with a slightly smug smirk of satisfaction...darn, what is the word.....
So much for German engineering.
Just use high energy lasers. Piece of cake.(in my minds eye)
Schadenfreude.
And this is what Owe’Malley wants to bring to Maryland and its coast.
I’ll bet some Polish saboteurs were behind it all!
Cheney’s wind machine.
Bush’s fault.
Ted Kennedy was right not to allow the construction of a “wind farm” off Nantucket - but of course, for all the wrong reasons.
Now Ted is dead, so the last major voice against wind farms that would have any impact on the actual construction has been silenced.
The “whop-whop-whop” sound of those turbines turning in the wind has the probability of driving men mad.
My comment from another thread on this issue;
“Heres a very important point from the article. The power generated is not usable at this time, and no answer is in sight.
In contrast to a steady one-source input, like from a nuclear or coal-fired power plant, a wind farm has many smaller sources with the output of each constantly varying with conditions like wind direction, wind speed and blade angle. Such variations lead to destabilizing energy-oscillations in the whole system that cannot be handled by the current converters. To make matters worse, the engineers have yet to fully understand the nature of the problem and to come up with any solution for it.
The Ultimate Dying Machine.
Michael Mann’s fault.
Large Batteries make swell flux capacitors.
Well, in fairness...
They had to build it quickly. Global Warming might have evaporated the ocean before the could figure out the power transmission problem.
There are wind farms all over the world. Do they all have this problem?
Have they published the totals of rare German birds killed or orphaned by this ‘Green Machine’? I didn’t think so.
