I wonder if it's significant that it is facing away from the wind? That picture was taken on the mainland just 15 miles or so from Limey. I don't think it's so bad here.

There are a couple in DE that face away from the wind when operational.

I suspect it is very significant that it is facing the wrong way. Either it's swivel jammed, causing the wind to spin the turbines backwards, or that is what the humans make it do when the fan malfunctions. But ... damn, look at those greenhouse gas emissions, just LOOK AT THEM!

Good spot, Pete, good call Rhianne. It was windy here yesterday. We had no electricity from 13.40 to about 21.30. We had a lovely twinkly evening in candlelight and firelight, dinner cooked on the calor camping stove which is seamlessly integrated into my kitchen for just such occasions, lovely Christmas music from the Pod-and-battery-powered-speakers low-fi.
All is calm today, all is bright ....

This exemplifies the problems with our legal system. Instead of an actual search for the truth, they are simply trying to win.
