Environmentalists can be a pain, can't they!
From the article

"Ironically, opposition to wind power ?- currently the most economical form of clean, renewable energy -- generally centers on environmental issues."

I'm thinking I read about this same project somewhere else, and that MA Senator Kenedy was leading the opposition to it because his family is one of the wealthy land owners.

If it can really be done at the costs they are saying, I'm all for wind power. Youll be hard pressed to find any real solution the environmentalists don't fight though.
