More Corn

The ruination of a picturesque countryside

As some of you are aware, I'm installing a new phone system on the Indiana side of the Indiana and Illinois boarder this week. On my way up I saw the results of Green Energy for the first time. Massive white towers with propeller blades on them sanding over a hundred feet above what used to be beautiful rolling cornfields. I mean hey, we have more than corn in Indiana, but not much. Not one or two, but over a hundred visible from the highway. Oddly only two were moving, I'm assuming that the others are for additional capacity. For what it's worth the buzzing noise I've heard is associated with them was not noticeable from the highways, but the turbines certainly were. Are we running out of coal?
