Kirk,
Whenever you get in a discussion with the wind turbine people, you will hit

efficiency and Vertical around 15-30%. The Vertical is less sensitive to
turbulence and safe siting, than the Horisontal and will have some

I think you have the idea. One way to change this situation, short of an
old-fashioned bloody revolution is to get around their institutions,
making them irrelevant, obsolete and in this perspective, the Great
Equalizer Internet can help us reach that goal.
