Well said - and well deserved compliments Jerome.
Pity about that first photo - is it a unicorn ? :-) Another example of how selective perception is, we focus on the person and don't notice the background. Fortunately Jerome focuses a lot of his attention on the background which is crucial to our lives. Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner - that I moved to Nice.
I was afraid it was a noose for a second. Then I realized he is actually growing a windmill out of his head. Seriously, just when you think he can do no more... He's the world's first moble, self-generated, human windfarm. Amazing! An exemple for us all... "Pretending that you already know the answer when you don't is not actually very helpful." ~Migeru.
Unfortunately, that is much less impressive. "Pretending that you already know the answer when you don't is not actually very helpful." ~Migeru.
It has been my experience that folks who understand sailing are usually MUCH more receptive to a discussion of windpower. Understand sailing and you have a basic grasp of both the problems and potential of wind generation. "Remember the I35W bridge--who needs terrorists when there are Republicans"
There is actually a profound if metaphorical truth there. Jerome was growing windmills out of his head long before it became fashionable. Now where are we going and what's with the handbasket?
