Thank you for your website. I just discovered on Wed., how much you have on it! I only visited it a couple of times when my neighbors and I first started our journey on this odyssey of fighting wind turbines next our very small community in Navajo County, Arizona. I direct others to you, but finally visited again myself.
I am at a library and can’t play this video right now. Sure hope to be able to soon.
We are trying to break through the mindset of “wind energy is our poor county’s salvation, and the industry wouldn’t tell us lies”!!!
Gave some print-outs from Wed. to a candidate for governor last night. Came back to print them again.
Thanks again!

Editor: You’re welcome! There’s lots of good stuff on the site. Be sure you check out “Watch WTS Videos” and “Browse All Articles.” A gold mine of information. And you should be mining the National Wind Watch and Industrial Wind Action sites, as well (see “Also Visit”).

Allendale, East South Australia fighting [wind turbine] factory against a done deal.
Any info to help inform local government and residents to discredit these vulgar, obtrusive monstrosites of the myths and untruths spread by the large companies would be very helpfull.
Still being oppossed in court, gathering local concern.

I live in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. Is there any place I can rent this video?
We are having a meeting on Wednesday November 9, 2011 on wind turbines and would like to see your comments prior.
Editor’s reply: Alas, it’s not out yet. Supposed to be out any day now—except the producer has been saying that for the past year. When it comes out, it will be fabulous, I expect.
