This looks really cool but it says it produces 1,600 KWH per year. I just looked at my power bill and we used 1,220 KWH this month (that's without using the AC or heater). If I'm reading this wrong please correct me, but it doesn't seem feasable to but 30 of them on top of my house. :)

You are very right in this! We need to cut back on our usage! ac or heater!

The people (our sisters and brothers) of Iraq have, since this "long war" dealt with extreme heat in summer and extreme cold in winter, and it doesn't matter to any of U.S.?

I like your fire, Forrest. Much needed around here.

But back to post #1, I agree, and what's great about living in West Texas right now is that Wind turbines are popping up like mushrooms! Our town's school had two wind turbines on it's property.
