Wind City...a place for true believers

There are some marvelous large wind farms in our area. They pollute the prairie rendering most of the ground un usable. That is the nature of stupid energy policy.

You can read the whole article without subscribing by Googleing in the news tab the phrase:
Small Is Beautiful—So Go Nuclear

I have a proposal.

I would propose all those who are convinced windmills and solar panels are the answer that they move to and live right under the windmills - FREE. We'll call it wind city. The only requirements are for you to live free there is you must live. IF you move there you must stay two years. No retreat.

To prove the capacity for absolute sustainability you must agree to the following:
  • You can have a solar panel that covers your whole roof.
  • You must live off the electric grid.
  • Other than solar your only source of power must be the windmill under which you live. No grid.
  • Your house may be insulated.
  • You must pump the water you need with electricity generated by the windmills.
  • You must grow your own food on the land under the windmill and after one season can eat only that.
  • You will not be allowed to give up. If it gets very cold, the wind doesn't blow and the sun doesn't shine you will freeze in the dark. You are allowed no storage devices. Just like the grid has none. If there is no load the windmill will run free.
  • You communications, internet, telephone, everything must be powered solely by your windmill and solar panel.
  • You will not be allowed under any circumstance to burn anything for cooking or heat. That would contribute to global warming.

If you decide to give up, you owe me $30,000, about what it will cost to put you into this situation. You get to live free.

IF you survive the two years and still believe this is the best plan for the whole of the nation you will be able to convince me.

I don't think anyone would do this. They know this is destined to fail.. just as the New Dark Age conspiracy of this administration is designed to do to the USA.
