(1 in a multiple picture set) I was shocked when I saw how many of the wind generating windmills were scattered across my beautiful homeland in Northwest Iowa. I thought of Don Quixote: 'Just then they came in sight of thirty or forty windmills that rise from that plain. And no sooner did Don Quixote see them that he said to his squire, 'Fortune is guiding our affairs better than we ourselves could have wished. Do you see over yonder, friend Sancho, thirty or forty hulking giants? I intend to do battle with them and slay them. With their spoils we shall begin to be rich for this is a righteous war and the removal of so foul a brood from off the face of the earth is a service God will bless.' I felt like jousting against these monsters myself. This may be a form of 'clean energy' but it is certainly not a clean landscape any longer. |
