Calumet group visits Monfort turbines
Calumet County citizens with land targetted for a wind farm learned about turbines during a recent visit to the Monfort Energy Center, near Cobb, Wisconsin. The group carried on conversations in a normal tone of voice directly beneath the turbines. They stood in the shadow of the turning blades and felt no ill effects, neither did they find dead birds at the base of the towers.

Yes, I went on the tour with the group and took the photo.
The group seemed to enjoy seeing and experiencing turbines like those that might be constructed on their land.
The general public can visit a turbine installation owned by We Energies each spring and fall. Watch on this blog for news on the date of the turbine open house south of Fond du Lac in the spring of 2007.
