Wind roars to a record 4,039 MW in the Northwest

Wind power has not always had an easy time making it onto a Pacific Northwest grid dominated by hydropower. But late in the afternoon on March 11, the turbines, mostly clustered near that wind tunnel called the Columbia River Gorge, spun fast and furious and grid operators found room for a record 4,039 megawatts (MW).

How much is 4,039 MW? More than double the energy that the coal, gas and nuclear plants connected to the Bonneville Power Administration system were providing at the time, BPA said [ PDF].

Inode,
They came at Romney with the two toughest attacks they could muster
That can't be the worst. It's too early in the campaign.

But it might be the worst attacks that are based on verifiable facts.

Next will come the attacks that are based on hearsay and innuendo. Possibly sexual. The "Larry Flynt" strategy.

And even then, it won't be the worst they can come up with.

You don't REALLY believe Obama has used his most powerful attacks this soon, do you? I'm hoping Obama will point out, over and over, the Romney's policies will be EXACTLY like the Bush policies that led to two dumbass wars and a global economic collapse. I hope he'll ask Americans if they WANT to go to war with Iran on borrowed Chinese money!
