But there's a big logistical problem running power lines from the proposed Texas site. You've got to think it all the way through and be flexible. I believe that if wind power were really economical - profitable, we'd have plenty of it by now. Natural Gas is a tremendous domestic cleaner-energy source that we should shift to immediately - there's where I agree with T the most! He's also for more domestic drilling immediately, by the way. Energy independence is vital to the survival of this country. I heard Boone Pickens purchased hundreds of massive wind turbines from GE for around $2 billion.
