Hey that works for me. Everett, whenever you are in the
hood, go over the I680 pass and check out the Altamont
Pass windfarm. I often ride out there on the motorcycle
and pull over, turn of the motor and just watch and
listen to those big thumpers churn out the power.
Then if you are in the area, post me so we can meet
for lunch or coffee. spike
