re: Actually you were complaining about your electricity rates going up to pay for a Florida nuke plant and saying wind is as good as nukes: Brain dead depression from the Obama Inauguration? We were discussing the economics of wind (not in Florida), and Hawk said it wasn't viable without subsidies. I was proving that neither were nuke plants. At no time were we discussing wind generation in Florida. re: Offshore Florida is classed as good for wind as west TX: windpoweringamerica.gov; Sorry, can't open the file.
