I find it very disturbing that Podolsky is a member of the impact assessment and regulatory subcommittees of Baldacci's Offshore Wind Power Taskforce.
Whoever owns the grid controls the price? The wind mafia is going to charge us once to build their tinker toys and transmission line. Then they are going to charge us again when we need power?
No CO2s sequestered but I'll bet there will be a ton of…
Long Islander, you might want to recalculate your impact area. Stewart Mt. in Highland Plt. is 25 miles from TransCanada's Kibby Mt. turbines. I have stood on Stewart and easily viewed those turbines with an unaided eye. At night, the lights can eas…
God, I hope so. I told my husband King was born in Virginia and he said, "Didn't we fight them once before?" Just a joke. Just a joke. heh heh
How right you are, Michele. I want to scream every time I hear the same words spoken over and over again. But, you know, because of places like this one, more and more people are becoming aware of their slick talk and we make them nervous. They have…
Large corporate environmental groups take big donations from businesses that damage the environment. Remember when Carl Pope, Sierra Club head honcho allowed the club's logo be put on Clorox bleach? He was vilified at first but then the other enviro…
The select large corporate environmental groups that have taken the side of big industrial wind will tell you the reason to destroy these places is to save the planet from global warming. That is the lynchpin of their argument. However, in Europe wh…
Brad, can I use some of these words this next Thursday? The list you give and the devastation -- I couldn't say it better. They need to be said in a public forum. Unless, you want to make those points yourself.
Joanne, you are so right. Among the many arguments I make is how much Angus King & John Baldacci are hypocrites. During both of their administrations, they didn't miss opportunities for press releases, photography, and sound bites extolling the virt…
Long Islander, your last paragraph of your comment is very poignant to me. For many years, I delighted in introducing friends "from away" and even complete strangers who were friends of those friends to places I held dear--Mighty Katahdin, beautiful…
Assuming visibility, I'd think you could see a 400' tall tower over 15 miles away. I'm sure you could quickly figure this out through geometry. So that could mean a wind farm could impact a circular area with say a 30 mile diameter if not blocked by…
I got into this battle with big wind because of birds. This really ticks me off - big time. Somebody's going down when all the dirty deals about this wind crap are revealed. Orange jumpsuits are not green.
In the case of Baldy and King vs the Maine…
Don't ask me why, but I Googled Land For Maine's Future and the Maine Coast Heritage Trust - Protecting the Character of Maine for Future Generations. Almost 500,000 acres of land have been bought up by the gov'mint. Lots of money was bonded, I reme…

Land For Maine's Future?
Don't ask me why, but I Googled Land For Maine's Future and the Maine Coast Heritage Trust - Protecting the Character of Maine for Future Generations. Almost 500,000 acres of land have been bought up by the gov'mint. Lots of money was bonded, I remember 'cause I voted for these bonds. Is any of that land in danger of being industrialized by big windies? And, if Maine is supposed to be protecting the character of Main… Continue

Friends of the Highlands: What's at stake in Western Maine?
Great piece by Alan Michka in our local paper, the Times Record http://www.timesrecord.com/
I'm having trouble linking to the piece but if you click on opinion and go to the 8th down, there it is. No chance to comment but it can be rated.

Can I spend wind watts?
The Natural Resources Council of Maine, who are advocating for wind power, are selling wind watts. Wondering what a wind watt was, I clicked on the link and seems like they have "partnered" with (in the old days, we would have called this getting in bed with) the Maine Interfaith Power and Light, a group of "faith communities" that sell carbon offsets (wind watts) at 20 bucks a wack. One wind watt for travel equals 1,000 miles. One wind watt for electricity equals 1… Continue

They are Everywhere
The Earth is being invaded! The loonies have escaped the booby hatch and are destroying every corner of the planet. No matter where you go, they will be there. From the pristine wilderness of Maine to the thousands of years old peat bogs in Scotland. To the sunny vistas and vineyards of Italy to the majesty of the Spanish coastline.
They are everywhere. They are building their terrible monuments to futility and fecklessness out of steel and cement and polyfoam and epoxy. They will clear… Continue

Inc. Wind Power Project on Vinalhaven Island

Note that Podolsky's partner, Norm Famous is the husband of LURC's Marcia Spencer-Famous who essentially heads up wind power projects statewide for LURC.

- Good afternoon JoAnne!! Many thanks for your comment! If the town of Dixfield is in favor of these turbines, I and many of my friends will be surrounded by them.
The Saddleback Ridge Project is in back of us and the Colonel Holman will be in front of us on opposite sides of Rt#2. Blessings! Jan
