Re: Fierce pride - yes it works! (4.00 / 6)

is it a unicorn ? :-)

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...

Oh really?

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.

growing a windmill out of his head

There is actually a profound if metaphorical truth there. Jerome was growing windmills out of his head long before it became fashionable.
