In response to: Report: Little harm from offshore wind farms in Denmark
Dan Juhl has installed turbines in Minnesota, I may have met him in passing at a conference but I have never visited his farms in minnesota.
GE has a patent on variable speed generators in the US which means a Vestas 2.o MW machine must be downgraded to 1.8 MW because of this patent. The variable speed technology means you get 10% more energy than a comparable Vestas machine this requires more maintenence and upkeep. Vestas makes a great turbine but they have difficulty competing because of the patent and dollar versus euro rates. All the worlds wind turbine manufacturers have sold out all their machines for the next several years. The industry is growing extremely quickly with installed capacity up 40% or so last year. By any ones standards this is a huge growth in one year so there is no worry that the industry will falter. Because of steel prices and huge backlog the machines are more expensive and this has effected the cost margins for Cape Wind. Ofshore wind is much different that land based machines with higher costs but with higher wind speeds so its a tradeoff.

you can post all the reports you want and youll still NEVER be an expert in the field of Wind energy economics or any other field in wind energy. I worked in the industry for several years and have an insiders understanding how the turbines operate. I wont comment on the EIS and other environmental issues because I dont care about them to be honest, the project will or will not go forward. However none of you here has any real experience working on wind farms you just quote others and act like your experts when your not. I spent way too much time dragging my ass around the woods doing site assessment work and investigating potential windfarm locations to take anymore nonsense from you fools.
I spend my days now working on the sewering issue on cape cod which is so much more of an environmental concern than a bunch of wind turbnies. Cleaning up nitrogen in the estuaries is my goal, which is something Im proud of while the rest of you fools cry about development. If it was left up to you and capri we would be back in caves eating nuts and berries... ps ban me I dont care

In response to: Donald Rumsfeld, Casualty of War
My bad...what I found was that Rumsfeld recieved 1 deferment from serving in the Korean War... I got him mixed up with Cheney who received 5 defferments from serving in Vietnam... Im not defending Clinton or anyone else... I am critizing people who have said Rumsfeld was a good SOD.... I think Colin Powell is an incredible American and warrior and if he had still been the SOD we would have gone into Iraq with several hundreds of thousands of troops and we wouldnt be in the mess we are in right now.
I also dont care for your tone calling me a fraud...I got the details wrong and I admitt it... unfortunately you had to respond with name calling...
we all have our opinions.
I have a personal interest in Iraq since I have a family member currently serving over there...

You obviously have no idea how wind energy equipment is purchased and installed. General Electric will be required to provide guarantees and warranties that the turbines they sell to Cape Wind will work for the life of the project. Do you actually believe that GE will go bankrupt because of a project the size of Cape Wind?? GE has a vested interest in seeing these wind turbines work as claimed because its the fastest growing sector of energy production.
Thankfully we now will have a Governor that is not beholding to the rich property front owners that have provided the majority of the money to The Alliance and its paid employees.
Capri- so greenpaece isnt environmental enough for you... I bet you support killing coyotes because they eat birds

thank you for posting such partisan drivel crap. This is about Rumsfeld and the terrible job he did and you turn it into partisan bashing. I guess you cant stand to have the truth in your face... just revert back to bashing the other parth when yours gets it all wrong.

thank you very much for showing us how a blind idealouge reacts to criticsm of anyone in his chosen party. Rumsfeld is the issue here not your party line crap about how democrats are whiners, wehter its true or not. This is about a goverment employee that did his job so badly that he was fired. Im just waiting for The President to give Rummy his Freedom Medal for outstanding goverment service...pleeze
Rumsfeld disregarded the advice of the Joint Chiefs in how to invade Iraq, he thought he knew more than Shinseki who spent his entire career in the military. Rumsfeld also ran roughshod over Colin Powell who has forgotten more about war that Rumsfeld will ever know. This micromanagement of the Defense Department by an individual that was never elected and did everything he could to avoid duty during the Vietnam War must not be allowed to happen again. The military has been depleted to the point that they've become vulnerable to a major conflict elsewhere in the world. How long would it take to redepoly if China invaded Taiwan or North Korea invades South Korea.

The thing is there are already limitatations on who can enter into a contract of marriage. I cant marry my sister, mother first cousin etc.... because theres already laws controlling marriage then having the law changed should be allowed to voters. I would personally vote against changing the constitution to prohibit gay marriage but if enough voters have signed a petition then the vote should be held.

This needs to go to the supreme court for a decision once and for all... The people have petitioned for a vote and the legislator should let them have one otherwise a persons vote means nothing. On the other hand Im against a change in the constitution making gay marriage illegal and would vote no to any change in the laws. But I want the chance to vote as do the 170,00 or so that petitioned for it...

Osama slipping out the back door into Pakistan... that's because Clinton was busy with Monica....
but thats ok because I know that when Pelosi becomes speaker then you will start really finding out about what the intelligence community really thought about regarding the puported WMD's.... I dont ask for much, but I like to be told the truth and to hear all sides to the story.
And remember Cheney said that a water dunking isnt really tourture...ask the Khymer Rouge about water dunking...

quoting above...
"I told someone awhile ago, and I still feel this way, that if someone could guarantee that my considerable monthly electric bill would be cut in half if the wind farm was built and put online, then I would gladly consider slaloming on a Steamship Authority fast ferry whilst clogging the engine intakes with the carcasses of the thousands of sea birds killed by the deadly turbine blades."
So in other words youd allow a project to kill thousands of sea birds if only you can save 50-60 dollars a month on your phone Bill. So thats what a dead bird is worth... funny how we will allow such enourmous impacts for a little bit of money... but not allow minimal impacts for a small amount of money...
heavan forbid we do anything just because its the right thing to do

Stilagr made many important arguments that you have so quickly dismissed and belittled. His argument of hydrogen fuel systems versus batteries has a lot of merit. There DOE is working with private companies to develop light weight non lead batteries that would be used in electric cars for energy storage. The 2 reasons electric cars arent viable today is energy storage density by weight and recharge time. The new batteries would be plastic based and weigh around %10 of traditional lead acid batteries. The other issue is recharge time which I dont have any information for at present, but will search for later.
Hydrogen storage is a main concern for using fuel cells in cars. High pressure tanks, Metal Hydrides, absoption materials, sodium boro-hydride all have the potential to be used for storage, but each has issues with deployment. Presently the cost of fuel cells is high and will remain so for some years until mass production scale takes hold.
I can build an electric battery based car in my garage that could reasonably go 100 miles on a single over night charge.

your full of it on the noise issue.. Ive stood directly below the "new" turbines and had a very pleasant conversation. The only way I could have got any closer was to climb the dam thing. Now when the turbines are 5 miles away do you actually think we can hear them??? what?? I cant hear you?? must be the noisy wind outside my window

I dont own guns but its a constitutional right to bear arms just like free speech. I dont mean to say censor the media, but they need to show some kind of restraint when it comes to crimes against children. These crazies know if they kill school children then they will have their 15 minutes of fame. Print their names in the newspapers but for heavens sake stop plastering their images and names on national media shows.

Pave paws is dopler based, meaning it has thousands of individual radar transmitters. It was cool looking up at them from the inside of pave paws, yes I did the pre 9/11 visit. They aim it electronically back and forth across the sky looking for stuff in orbit, ICBMs, satellites, rockets etc. When they spot something they can ramp up the output and direct the beam towards a moving target. They typically only use a small portion of the total ouptut at any given time, and keep the power turned down. This thing is suppossed to be able to punch through clouds and weather produced after a nuclear attack, its got complete backup power its not your typical radar. They look way up into the sky...not down along the water front towards hyannis harbor.

Whatever rational we went into Iraq with is no longer valid, now we need to stablilize the oil prices and let the civil war run itself out.

You know whats amusing about this whole thing, there had been discussion to build wind turbines at Pave Paws to provide electricity for the radar, and I mean onsite, within the air force controlled land.

Spend 2 years in a public works system and then you can become a citizen, or serve in the military for a certain amount of time. Make the process difficult enough that only those willing to work for it can apply...

However stop painting Jim Gordon as some kind of saint, because he isnt. I can support the project and dislike the people pushing it...

I believe that if the fetus can sustain itself outside the womb then it should be given the chance. I dont like partial birth abortions, a very bad thing. However I do believe a woman has the right to make decisions on her own body and shouldnt be forced to keep an unwanted fetus. Some peole think a child is created the instant a sperm and an egg come together... some feel any form of birth control is wrong, including condoms, some think there should be no restrictions what so ever. Some people think a woman can make any decision she wishes up to and including partial birth abortions. Not an easy call on any level, luckily Im a man so its not my choice to make. However as an American and a libertarian we must default to the rights of the woman/individual over the rights of the goverment. Remember Terry Schaivo and the circus the congress created. Ive had to watch a family memeber fail and die from old age... its something I would never want the goverment to have control over. These issues will get more complicated as science advances, artificially grown organs, cloning....

The National Wind Coordinating Committee (NWCC) completed a comparison of wind farm avian mortality with bird mortality caused by other man-made structures in the U.S.
The NWCC did not conduct its own study, but analyzed all of the research done to date on various causes of avian mortality, including commercial wind farm turbines. They report that "data collected outside California indicate an average of 1.83 avian fatalities per turbine (for all species combined), and 0.006 raptor fatalities per turbine per year. Based on current projections of 3,500 operational wind turbines in the US by the end of 2001, excluding California, the total annual mortality was estimated at approximately 6,400 bird fatalities per year for all species combined."13
A reasonable, conservative estimate is that of every 10,000 human-related bird deaths in the U.S. today, wind plants cause less than one.

Capri- I applaud your work in wildlife advocacy. I believe that we can save more animals by expanding our use of renewable energy including wind power which will reduce our use of carbon based fuels. I dont want to see wind tubines kill birds or any other animals, but the reality is everything we do has an impact. We all use electricity, drive cars, add nitrogen to the environment and in general mess up the planet. I honestly believe that unless we maximize the use of renewables its going to get worse. Anything is better than more coal plants spewing co2 and mercury into the atmosphere.

"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself"
Im not afraid of the terrorists anymore... Ive got more chance of being hit by a car, drowning, second hand smoke. I look in the paper everyday and I see lots of old people's obituaries. There are 300,000,000 people in the US and if average life expectency is say 75 years then on average 4,000,000 americans die every year. However we need to be afraid says the President, our way of life is at risk. I no longer fear the boogey man Mr President, and neither should anyone else.

as a bird expert capri please tell me how many birds are killed each year in the United States by automobiles, household cats, fossil fuel burning powerplants, buildings, and powerlines. since there is about maybe 12,000 individual wind turbines in the US and the average mortality is 1 bird per year per turbine that makes it 12,000/yr. last time I checked some 300,000,000 birds are killed by household cats every year. Maybe your correct that nantucket Sound isnt the place but you need to admitt that compared to other impacts wind turbines are at the bottom.

The only data I got from CW was the distance from the shore. The information I have is from being an expert in the field, I have installed numerous meterological towers across New England, site work investigating proposed wind farms, interconnection issues and I even helped design and build an experimental vertical axis wind turbine. I think this gives me a bit more standing when it comes to renewable energy. Just because I eat chicken, watch birds fly and talk to poultry farmers doesnt make me an expert in your field. Dont act like your an expert in mine...

What qualifications do you have with respect to energy projects?? have you done any research into the subject besides reading the alliance website?? I would have no objection if you said you dont want turbines because you think they are ugly. I respect personal opinions, however I give no repspect to personal attacks against someone when they post information that refutes your position.

Ive always tried to explain the difference between strategy and tactics with regards to warfare with people. Strategy is decision to invade Iragq, tactics was how we went about it, ie number of troops, weapons, speed of advancement, the problem is politicians know nothing about tactics. Instead of building large bases in the desert and pulling the troops of of the cities, we send the foot soldiers into a situation where they are vulnerable and are targets. How many pilots were lost in Iraq? how many sailors in ships?? its always the grunts on the ground who get shot at and blown up. I dont argue the decision to invade Iraq, I argue the tactics...

What about oil companies drilling in Alaska wildlife refuges?? or the gulf of mexico? or mining companies stripping mountains, or farmers grazing cattle on public lands. It happens all the time.... CW will pay a lease to use the watersheet just like fishermen pay for a liscense. Just because you dont like the project isnt enough of a reason to stop it. The reason Danes are cool with wind energy is because they care enough about the environment to sign the Kyoto protocols and even invest in their own machines.

Bobcat- you said not the same scale. 72 turbines is a large project in the industry, 130 is also a large project in the industry. 1-10 machines is a small scale project... I grant that CW is twice the size of the Nysted project but they are both large scaled commercial projects. They both will cost in the hundreds of millions of dollars. I dont agree with everything CW has done, but I believe the project is basically sound. There has never been a windfarm built that somone didnt object too, however after its been build most people say that its not as much of a problem as they thought it would be. Except for Monponsett the mass maratime turbine has been well accepted.

Bobcat-Denmark produces 20% of its electricity demand from renewables...thats something to emulate.
qoute from CW website
Cape Wind will be 5.2 (8.3km)miles from Point Gammon, a private island in South Yarmouth, 5.6 miles from Cotuit, 6.5 miles from Craigville Beach on Cape Cod. Cape Wind will be 9.3(15km) miles from Oak Bluffs and 13.8 (22km)miles from the town of Nantucket. Cape Wind will be farther away from the nearest home than any other electricity generation facility in Massachusetts.
Bobcat quote
And, by the way -- I think we'd all be alot more agreeable to a wind farm that was sited 10-13 kilometers from shore (re: Nysted).
almost the same distance Bobcat..do your homework

capri- I was responding to Bobcats post "Nothing on the scale of the proposed wind farm has ever been built" which I dont agree with. I would agree if the largest was say 10 turbines, 72 turbines is about half the size of CW... I consider that to be a similar scale project. There are proposed offshore farms of over 1000 MW... over twice as large as CW.

My personal opinion of Jim Gordon will not affect my position regarding Cape Wind. I think CW is a good project and I will debate anyone who thinks otherwise. I will back up my position with facts. Yes CW will kill some birds, hundreds of millions of birds are killed in the US every year. Yes CW is using public land and I hope Jim Gordon pays though the nose for the rights. Yes he will recieve tax credits and other incentives. Jobs will be created from the project. tourism wont suffer, property values wont fall unless its from the forthcoming housing bust.

a proposed offshore windfarm in texas is going to be over 500 megawatts of insatlled capacity. thats just in the US
As of 2006, the largest offshore wind farm is the Nysted Offshore Wind Farm at Rødsand, located about ten kilometres south of Nysted and thirteen kilometres west of Gedser Denmark. The wind farm consists of seventy two turbines of 2.3 MW, which produces 165.6 MW of power at rated wind speed.

The goverment oversight is secondary, the responsibility for doing a good job is the contractors, the design and the oversight is the engineers. The governors, turnpike boss, and other elected officials come and go, but Bechtel and Modern are here to stay.

In response to: Is a windmill coming to YOUR backyard?
I would like to know the rated decibles when the turbine self-furls. These small machines have limited controls to regulate over speed, so the blades either twist, or the nacelle turns out of the dirct wind. Either way placing these in residential neighborhoods needs to be carefully considered.
These machines will also need some kind of inverter to convert from variable AC to DC then back to AC... otherwise the turbines must use fixed speed induction motors running at grid frequency...not likely

The problem with the health care industry is lack of effieceny..... I watched the McGlaughlin group a couple of weeks back and one of the experts quoted from a study of the health care industry. This gentleman said that if the entire health care indusrty was computerized from top to bottom, ie. all our records, pharmacies, goverment agencies, doctors, hospitals etc. into one big database the country would save 165 BILLION dollars a year!! What amazes me is this isnt the best part.... the database would automatically red flag prescriptions that would react with other drugs. In other words the computer would tell the pharmascist that a drug shouldnt be taken by the customer. I was shocked when the gentleman said this would save almost 100,000 american lives just from bad prescriptions. The money saved alone could insure every un-insured citizen in this coutry. Sounds like we have way too many paper pushers in the medical industry...Now wheres my national medical card??
Representative Patrick...wheres our state medical ID card??

It doesnt matter what the temps are around here... there is no ice to melt. however, if the temps are rising at the poles and at greenland then we need to worry. Rising ocean waters would cause damage on a scale that would be unprecendented. It the long run the earth abides...its the people that get tossed aside

its 300 miliion not 600 million americans...
I remember talking to a business associate from the Netherlands. It was interesting because he explained that its very difficult to become rich in the Netherlands because of the increasing tax rates on incomes. I sympathized with him knowing how the US is setup, then he talked about his daughter that is handicapped with mental retardation. He explained how she will be taken care of for life by the Netherlands goverment so he didnt have to worry about putting money away for her care.
When you think about it the only differnece between the US and the Netherlands is how much... how much in taxes, how much in services. In the US when you start becoming wealthy your then able to afford accountants and lawyers, so that you end up paying less in taxes as you create more wealth for yourself. Im very happy to see that Warren Buffett is giving his billions to the Gates Foundation, hopefully they will find cures to some diseases and give the medicine away for free.

US land mass 3,593,224 sq mi
proposed windarms 1880.6 sq mi(per barbara)
1880.6/3593224 = 0.0005233
or 0.05233% or for every square mile of turbines there are 1910.6 square miles that dont have turbines

First off Im nobodys cohort.... I have never met Jack Colman...get that straight.
I love how you quoted that report about negotiating leases...did you read directly above that??
"Wind farms could have a positive impact on commercial fishery. Research and development in this area indicates that windfarms could form a breeding area for certain fish species."
The biggest impact on fisheries are the fishermen themselves. They catch fish to sell to consumers, this is commercialism at its finest. However, like the area Cape wind wishes to use, the fish belong to the people of this country, not just certain fisherman. The fisherman must have a licesene to fish from federal waters, just like Cape Wind will need a licesnse to operate. The two activities can co-exist together with some restrictions on both sides. Cape wind must allow fishing between the turbines, and the fishermen must respect the private property of Cape Wind.
Permanent habitat alteration?? after 25 years remove the strucutres if so desired.. the turbines have a lifespan remember.
Good job Monpansett...lol

How can you claim the loss of 24 sq miles of nantucket sound for fishing. The lease to allow Cape Wind will absolutely allow fishing between the wind turbines. The oil rigs in the gulf of mexico are the best place for fishing, boats appraoch the platforms and fish next to them all the time. Id never support the project if Cape Wind could prevent fishing amonst the turbines... wont happen...
Your starting to sound like Chicken Little Barbara... The Windmills are coming..The Windmills are coming

The only fishermen that might be impacted are the draggermen... and this type of fishing has the most impact on the environment. Recreational boating fishermen will be fishing off the turbine foundations...guaranteed. Why does the goverment sink ships to make artifical reefs?? because they become fish habitats. Why is ok for one commercial enterprise, ie fishing, to take precedence over another commercial endeavour, ie wind turbines. Not everyone eats fish, but everyone uses electricity....
Why dont you go fight against the LNG plant thats coming to Fairhaven instead... LNG is far more dangerous than wind turbines... wind turbines dont explode...

Thats right and no one ever drives on the edges of the road...especially not here on cape cod. Put the wind turbines on the moon and some spaceship might run into them...anything is possible. We cant completely eliminate risk in our daily lives... I have a better chance of being run over by a bus full of nuns then running into a windturbine... besides those singing nuns are causing noise pollution and are scaring the birds...

In zero visibility all boat owners must use caution and go slow enough to avoid other objects. Its the boat owners responsibility for safe operation of their vessel. Its kind of like removing all the street lights because some idiot might run into one...

I wonder how much money Jay Cashman has donated to re-elect Kennedy?? Obviously Jim Gordon forgot to send a check to ole Ted to keep him happy and inebriated... Cashmans proposed projects are a much larger threat to shipping because of the number of ships using the Canal... what a sham
