Best related video in OK where wind turbine was struck by lightning.

It is a slow day, when simple mechanical failure constitutes "news."

It's more than a "simple mechanical failure." It is tied to some very bad policy decisions on "green energy" delusions.

You’d be bitching if that loss of electricity cut off your A/C

Ummmm those turbine blades are some big sumbishes. It's newsworthy on any normal news day.

That simply cost about 2.5 million. No biggie, the government will cover the costs

Under Trump they wanted to put in drilling platforms way far out the shore of the Carolina's. The local dimwit dems c/o it being an eye sore.
The Gov. of NC is sitting on a surplus and said no to gasoline relief for people.
He was in Port City and they are putting these fricking wind turbine-- things out in the ocean and suddenly don't see them as an eye sore.
They will fail but the democrats are insane and like repeating the same things to get rich-- with the same Solyndra result----failure.

When working properly those blades kill 3,000 birds EVERY DAY.

Meh, large wind turbine catastrophic failures are like train wrecks. They are amazing to see unfold. It's hard to drecribe the momentum and force they spin with. When for whatever reason their brakes fail and they spin put of control it is a sight to behold.

71% of our planet is covered in ocean where the waves almost always work 24/7. Water is 800 times more powerful than air. There is real potential there.
