Fossil fuel powered energy is cheaper, more efficient, reliable and much better for the environment. James Hansen and his band of fellow imbeciles should be held accountable for the mass stupidity they have wrought.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

Yup. Someone should write a book titled “Energy For Total Retards” on wind and solar. As for wind, Master Resource did a detailed analysis of the total costs of wind, concluding that wind costs upwards of 38 cents a kilowatt hour (~ 12 cents normally) and that “wind plant implementations cannot be sustained because they divert a large portion of national wealth into unproductive debt-laden investments.” My reply:
Errrr… ‘prodigeous,’ not ‘prodigal’….

Prodigal is correct if used as an adjective.
prodigal, Adjective:
Spending money or resources freely and recklessly; wastefully extravagant.
Noun:
A person who spends money in a recklessly extravagant way.
Synonyms:
adjective. lavish – profuse – extravagant – wasteful – spendthrift
noun. spendthrift – waster – wastrel – spender – squanderer

Exactly, Otter, and 3487, lol. I know words pretty good, and prodigeous in this context would be correct also. “This prodigeous spending on retarded green energy is going to bankrupt the country.” 🙂
My bigger concern is not holding people accountable for the mass stupidity they have wrought (there are not enough hours in all the sane people’s lifetimes combined for that) but rather who cleans up the horrible environmental mess wind and solar cause? Who takes down the towers? You can’t put back the old growth trees cut for this–yet there is no protest over tree removal for turbines. And where do all the monstrous piles of parts end up? Turbine propellers are not easy to recycle–they are a composite material (i.e. chemicals turned solid, but chemicals are good if used for turbines). The steel can be recycled. I’m not sure what happens to however much of the hydraulic fluid is left after it leaks out on the ground for months or years. Then there’s solar panels, a separate mess. Who fixes this mess?
The really ugly mess began a long way away.
Yes, I make mention of this in my letters to the editor and many of my blog entries. I wrote a piece on Moms Clean Air Force (pro-wind mommies) and noted the cruelty of “saving” your own child from pollution with utter disregard to the consequences of your decision. Out of sight, out of mind–we don’t really outgrow that blindness anymore. I consider this one of the cruelest behaviours in all of this whole “green” mess–the willingness to contribute to the death of adults and children in other countries to save your child from a fictitious boogymonster. It’s truly deplorable.
But even if wind power is wasteful and destructive, just think how good and guilt free if makes green nutjobs feel when they see those monstrosities in action.
They’re just hippie icons.
I am sitting in my house in the “state with the best wind resources”. The wind is 5mph and I will end up running my A/C today because it’s sunny and without wind. This has been going on for 4 months. During the extremely hot summer, the wind hardly blew (and when it did, it was 50 mph for a short period as weather fronts went through). If the turbines made 1% of capacity factor, it would be surprising. All at a cost of billions to taxpayers and millions in rate increases in electricity. To be honest, I don’t care how guilt free these green nutjobs feel.
Unfortunately those windmills have a projected rated life of about 20-30 years.
Fortunately that’s a computer model projection…
Thank you. I feel much better now! 🙂
The brazen psychological projection of Hansen’s Whores: huddling together in greasy little basement forums, imagining their own crawling skin also infecting science jocks, their desire to lash out and slash tires and key cars, burn down fresh new houses, suddenly their own zombie army is eying them, hell on earth arriving in spades, hark who’s that in the mirror, my god they’re going to eat us alive, we the chosen ones!
