Now he is tilting at windmills

[Brainster]

Have a look at this.

Yeah that is a fine example of pro-wind woo! Good find!

 

[Spindrift]

Not necessarily, but neither do wind turbines cause it

But they do. Without the wind turbines people with Wind Turbine Syndrome wouldn't have it. The fact that you could probably cause people to get WTS with a non operational turbine is just a bonus.

It's like in the old days when witches caused bad things to happen. My neighbor might not have been a witch but bad things happened and since witches cause bad things then my neighbor the witch is responsible.

See, it all makes sense!

As per quadraginta's quote, the syndrome correlates with media coverage of it rather than with the presence of wind farms. Clearly, watching the news causes cancer.

People with psychosomatic disorders are faking it?

No, they're having a real psychological reaction to fake news.

He lied about creating thousands of jobs in Scotland for his golf scheme. Then took the huff when the government spanked his arse on the offshore windfarm.

He is a pathetic excuse for a human being.

[/INDENT](And don't worry. I saw your old style smilie.)

I didn't.

 

[pgwenthold]

It's especially ironic that he brought up windmills killing birds.

Oh yeah? How much wildlife will be killed by eliminating the coal regulations?

You've got that right! Trump is no good for America and he is doing things that is making Putin happy and the rest of the world unhappy.

Why would wildlife need water that is free of acid waste and heavy metal contamination?

The American public doesn't.

Apparently.

Anecdote: My father and I own a small farm in Illinois. We were approached by a company that wanted to set up a wind farm on land in that area. We would have been renting out small plots for up to three turbines. The closest town ultimately put an end to the deal out of concerns, I kid you not, that the wind turbines would cause cancer.

That county went 71% for Trump in the general election.

Liberals and all their regulations, amiright?

Ironic... The people that voted for the candidate that wants to eliminate environmental regulations and cut back the government, also prevented you from allowing windmills to be built.

Coal cancer was good enough for their parents and it's good enough for them. None of that fancy newfangled citified wind cancer.

I would imagine if they could supplement the solar with a small vertical wind turbine, the possibilities to run lighting out along roads in rural areas would be awesome.

The Walmart super center in Worcester MA tried that as a green experiment in conjunction with a windmill manufacturer in 2010. Five years later they removed them all because the cost of maintaining spinning mechanical miniature windmills far exceeded the value of the produced electricity. The maintenance issue is a big reason why US wind farms now always go for the smallest number of large windmills they can fit.

So after rant about wind, did he then rant about corn too?

Nope - there is not a corn hole in existence he (Trumpf) does not like!!!!!

Yet, I hear he loves cornhole!!!!!!!!

DITTO!!

Remember how supportive he was of the House health bill and then turned around call the bill, "mean?" Now, Donald "Don Quixote" Trump is attacking windmills.

Time to dump dumb Trump.

Time for that was just before the election.
