There is no hijack.. The OP links a March 25, 2008 news idem that boasts
about a great achievement in wind power.

I'm pretty sure we can question that assumption,
without moving the discussion to another part of this web site.

If the moderator wants to move the discussion, so be it.
Why would anyone who is following it, even care?

I've met a few people that read information (hype?) about wind power
and jump to the conclusion, that those glowing reports could be translated into
a backyard success with a wind turbine they can order on-line..

For examples, search on "Missouri Wind and Solar" scam or rip-off.

One of my Youtube PV buddies down in Florida wanted to mount a MW&S turbine,
on a low mount, in the narrow space between his house and his neighbors.
Because the wind increased when it was forced between the houses.

Even with my limited experiences with small sailboats seems to tell me that's a nutty idea..
I told him he should get a good site evaluation done before placing his order.
I'm not sure if he did or not..
