Jon Boone: “I note the Ontario wind output is now at 0.4 % of it’s installed capacity. A little lower and it will meet the needs of Fantasyland.”

A little while back, Jon Boone wrote a letter to the Cumberland (Maryland) Times-News which we happily posted here under the title, Industrial windplants in Western Maryland? Jon Boone says Garrett Countians “deserve far better.” Seems Mr. Boone, and an increasing … Continue reading
Wayne Wegner: “Is the jury still out on the issue of eagles versus 180mph, spinning turbine blades?” Will the odds improve at Eagle Rock, Maryland?
