[at-l] Windmills on tall buildings

[Jim Bullard]

My use of electricity is slightly less than 5 years ago (although my bill is
substantially higher). I've always tried to keep my consumption low. I agree
that we need to reduce our electric consumption and believe that
conservation should be given more emphasis. It bothers me that rather than
urging people to conserve, we build huge wind farms that enable everyone to
continue excessive consumption.
