Mannie,

That math on the wind turbines doesn't seem to add up. If one blade is .5 mil and they have at least 3 blades plus all the other hardware and installation costs. What's the average electric bill per household in the area ? Maybe 100-300. Also I wonder what the life span of those units are - being exposed to such harsh elements? Also there would need to be insurance costs to cover problems such as this : koreus.com
