Ted Kennedy has been dead for a decade. More recently, the president said that the noise from wind turbines gives people cancer. In the end they are just two people that are wrong.

"NIMBYism" is a word that turns off critical thought in some people and ruins discussions.

There is a large inventory of coastlines with wind energy potential. There will be many distractions as they are developed by coal companies trying to derail those projects. That may be through astroturfing which will present itself as "NIMBYism" and divides people to weaken them.

Anyone who complains wind-turbines being unsightly should be forced to live next to an oil-refinery :-(
