Why don't we put T Boone in charge and give all the auto makers wind

people will buy.


T. Boone is an interesting and entertaining nut.

He's to be commended for his initiatives, but a lot of the wind has been
taken out of his turbines since oil started dropping in price.

I have a theory about wind power. If it is implemented on a massive scale,
the next thing we'll hear is that by capturing the energy of the wind, we
are upsetting natural wind currents, screwing up seed distribution and
contributing even more to global warming. Or cooling. Or whatever the tree
huggers are promoting at the time.

Not to mention that the wind corridor that Pickens is proposing is
right smack dab in the middle of the mid-America flyway for migrating
birds.

Wonder how he's going to get around that one.

With the newer technological turbines, I don't believe bird kills are a
concern. Most of the reports of bird kills, go back to the Altamont Pass
turbines, which were an older technology.

You mean they might kill some friggin' Canada geese? Where do I send money
to put these things up?

Killing animals that annoy you is the Christian thing to do.

Speaking of Canadian geese, I've always wondered why they call
resident geese (meaning those that reside in the US) Canadian.
Wouldn't you think that they would be called American Geese?

Here's another thing. We have open season during November for
resident Canadian Geese. Now as we all know, Canadian Geese, are
migratory.

How exactly am I supposed to tell when I aim at a Canadian goose if
it's a resident goose or a migratory goose?

Seriously - do the Canadian geese have a special license plate that
says Hoser on it? Perhaps Oie canadienne?

I mean seriously - what am I supposed to look for?
