For all techie wind bloggers, Jerry's photo appears to be in the Altamont Pass, sunrise (because the upwind turbines face west.) They're likely Micon, Nordtank or Bonus, turbines with approx 27m rotors. In any case from Denmark.  Erected back in the paleolithic (1984?) they are still running. One's missing a nacelle cover, but hey.

It's important to realize that these turbines have already outlived their planned lifetime by five years.
