This left my heart pounding! There was a time in my life I think I would have loved to have tried this but not now.

Coal State Representative Wants to Outlaw Wind Turbines June 4, 2007 8:41 am

West Virginia Rep Nick Rahall wants to outlaw future construction of wind turbines for generating clean electricity and phase out existing turbines in the name of saving birds and bats.

We are certain that the fact that West Virginia is a major coal producing state has nothing to do with this, wind turbines would be effective clean producers of power even on West Virginia’s mountaintops, if there were any left. ::Yahoo [Source]

Watch THOMAS at the Library of Congress to see if this tries to become a bill. Remember, it is easy to contact your representative!
