miws.. it’s obviously wayyyyy above yours. DBP tried to slip in a terminology that if repeated long enough becomes accepted fact. Like the world “progressive politics”. in lieu of liberal which has a higher negative rating. But a skunk is a skunk, no matter how your dye the coat. See things like “world class energy experts at Bonneville”… means you can’t disagree or take issue.. end of discussion. BPA is a political entity … now it is a world class energy expert.. 20 years ago it was a ecological disaster instigator… so a world class expert it has effectively done more to destroy the ecological balance of the PacNW environment than any government agency… but they are now deliberative, wise, council.. to be listened to cause the they support windmills? They will support whatever they are told to support..with every shifting wind of politics… knowing what we know now.. would you dam the ecological soul of the Columbia watershed? Decimating the largest wild salmon migration on the planet…The BPA “experts” did over 60 years ago. They are not turbines, they are windmills.. converting wind to mechanical energy. Course, the scientists I know… call em windmills… DOE scientists that have political crib notes to call em wind turbines so they have the cachet of super high tech. obfuscating mysterious sounding, verbage that you can’t weigh in on… too technical. So many experts, so many regretful consequences. The technology is not complex or new…. or mysterious.
