thank you, pointspecial, for that very reasonable analysis. But you are forgetting one very important thing. Wind turbines out on the lake in greater numbers produces a lot more power, sure. But nobody would be able to see the turbines (or at least not nearly as well), so nobody would be able to think or or say "wow, we have greeeen energy. we are SO conscientious!". The whole point of the green movement is to make people feel better about themselves, cost and waste reduction be damned

but yeah, one other thing, 750 grand a pop probably doesn't factor in a bulk rate, but i'm not sure...
