The venture at the center of all the fuss -- the Cape Wind Project, being developed by Cape Wind Associates -- would be the first major offshore wind installation in the U.S., and one of the largest wind farms in the world. It would produce enough electricity to meet nearly 75 percent of demand on Cape Cod and nearby islands Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard, with peak output of 420 megawatts. So how about we just make a deal, cancel the windfarm, and remove 420 megawatts from the power sent to Cape Cod and nearby islands Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard. They could go back to fish oil lamps or something, and woodstoves for heat.
