Quote of the Day

From Floyd County resident J.C. Holden on a proposed wind farm on Wills Ridge:

"If a man owns property and wants to build a wind mill on it, that's his business. As long as that wind mill’s not bothering mine, as long as it's not throwing bird guts over on my property, let him have it."

I think that's a direct quote from Oliver Wendell Holmes.  Can't seem to find it though ...

Did you read to the bottom of that article, Jerry? Me 'n you can get an Associates Degree in Wind Energy in only 15 months from Redstone, whatever that is. Imagine our great future. Everything our tax dollars have funded so far in "green" energy has failed. Big bucks for us Wind Energy graduates is just around the corner, no?
