So today i was at work, answering the phones. i work with a really sweet non-profit called Cape And Islands Self Reliance. They run an oil co-op. they use the power of their members to force oil sellers to give people lower prices. and then use that money to support renewable energy. pretty sweet huh. well i get a phone call from a lady today. and she wants to make sure we dont support the wind farm in nantuket sound. i told her that as an orginization we dont take a stance. when in fact we support the shit out of it in every way but officialy. She then goes on to say and i quote “i support renewable energy, but you know, not in my back yard” HOLY SHIT. so i guess its ok to just come out and say it. you dont need to make anything up, you just let the world know that Not In My Backyard is ok with you. i was just like “gah….” ohh well maybe extinction isnt such a bad idea after all.

How about thinking of Nantucket Sound as a Place of value worth protecting…and siting turbines in deep water outside of our coastal waters, away from ferry traffic, local commercial fishermen, and a migratory bird flyway?
How does Jim Gordon’s project taste when you finally swallow it?
