LOL. You have a point there.

For those of you that have trouble with science, have you ever seen the Kite Loft in Ocean City without a kite in the air?

The solar heated land mass next to the shore usually and dependably heats the air above it causing it to rise. The nearby ocean rarely has temperatures exceeding that of the land. The lower water temps lower the temp of the air above it. That is the source of the wind that moves on-shore and that can dependably power the mills even after dark. The land mass still heats the air above it for hours after night fall. Wind to power the mills is available each day for most of a 24 hour cycle. The speed of the wind will depend on the heat absorbed by the land mass each day light hour. This near constant difference in temperature should allow greater dependablity of power generation than the on-shore plants that Delmarva insists are better.

Please forgive me in advance if I use it without crediting it to you every single time….this is my post of acknowledgment, because I know that somewhere, sometime, it will just pop out and I will not catch my lapse in time to make the acknowledgment.

It is a great phrase and is worthy of a good mind. You should be proud.

First, the wind farm IS being built with private funds. Where have you been the last year and a half?

Secondly it is THE PUBLIC that wants the union between Delmarva and Bluewater; they want the benefits and look to their elected officials to let them have them…..

Thirdly, wind may be sporadic, but it will always be there and its free. Carbon sources such as coal, gas, and oil, are dwindling rapidly, will soon become sporadic, and their costs are soaring beyond belief….

If we build more wind farms across the entire continent, ( because the wind is always blowing somewhere), we minimize the problem of doldrums.

One of America’s places where the wind blows more constant, is off of Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.

We need to start somewhere, and saving tremendous amounts of money in the process for Delmarva SOS customers, would be a welcome bonus.

“Boondoogle” and “pig-in-a-poke” in consecutive sentences…

Wow!

I’ve heard Delarvae (c) a lot of things but I’ve never heard them called courageous for trying to protect thier obscene profits at the expense of rate payers like you and I.

What boat did you just get off of?

Wind power can produce electricity that can be fed into the power grid. The problem is that it may not be available during peak times and be worthless. The fact that conventional power plants will need to be built as backup.

It takes courage to stand up against trendiness but sometimes it is necessary to remind the Emperor that he is buck naked.

Let me also make a point here that I know of no advocate for BWW that is paid by them or compensated in any way shape or form. That is a point that has not been made often in the media coverage. Everything besides what BWW puts out is grass roots support.

I also think it’s important we keep before the public the names of those in the General Assembly who are acting for Delmarva Power. Hocker and Thornburg have other strikes against them, but Hocker especially could be vulnerable on this issue, as BWW has a lot of support even in ultra-conservative Sussex County. Voters should be reminded who’s helping and who’s hurting the wind farm effort.
