How to Build a 17-ft Wind Turbine
agentfive writes "The people over at Treehugger have found an amazing little article on how to build a 17ft - 3kW+ output Wind Turbine. Apparently this is the latest project of OtherPower.com and the site has a variety of other engergy saving/producing projects including a Homebrew Maytag Gas Battery charger."
Where's your reference for this "fact"? It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I don't believe you. This is mostly a myth as far as I've ever been able to figure out.
Besides, even if they do kill birds, you'd have to build a LOT of wind turbines before you came anywhere close to the number of birds killed by trucks, deforestation, pollution or even windows (the transparent glass kind, not the OS). Should we outlaw trucks or windows to protect the poor birdies while we're at it? I ask you, How many birds would be saved by replacing coal burning powerplants with wind turbines?
Random and weird software I've written.

Religion and science are both 90% crap..but that doesn't negate the other 10%.
