Our township has just put up a windmill. The cost is one of the reasons I haven't gone to the windmill yet. RJ ----- Original Message ----- From: Lee A. Stone To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, May 12, 2009 16:34 Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] KiloWatt
R J, long ago we had a discussion on here about windmills and turbines. I checkwith a company called Jacobson and at that time to have everything installed a wind turbine with auto feed back to the power company was something like $26,000 with a payback in something like 8 years? not sure. but alas, our township will not allow wind mills or turbines if you own less than 1.5 acres and even then one needs to get the cnsent of the neighbors. .

Host: No. Police: We've been getting complaints about this party. Host: About the drugs? Police: No. Host: About the guns, then? Is somebody complaining about the guns? Police: No, the noise. Host: Oh, the noise. Well that makes sense because there are no guns or drugs here. (An enormous explosion is heard in the background.) Or fireworks. Who's complaining about the noise? The neighbors? Police: No, the neighbors fled inland hours ago. Most of the recent complaints have come from Pittsburgh. Do you think you could ask the host to quiet things down? Host: No Problem. (At this point, a Volkswagon bug with primitive religious symbols drawn on the doors emerges from the living room and roars down the hall, past the police and onto the lawn, where it smashes into a tree. Eight guests tumble out onto the grass, moaning.) See? Things are starting to wind down. Are you curious? Ask me about Temptations toy parties. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
