Talking about alternative energy... I was driving to my brother's the other day, which involves spending half an hour on scenic country roads going through quaint villages. Every now and again on roads like this you'll see signs campaigning for local causes- "We need a bypass" or "No open prison in our village".

However the other day I saw signs saying something like "No to giant wind turbines on our hills". I felt like putting up a sign beneath it sayin "Yes to oil-burning power station."

What the hell is wrong with these people? What's wrong with wind turbines? I think they are beautiful to look at, and even if I didn't I would rather support a clean, renewable energy source than continue with what we have.
