Leave it to a Texan to give it to you straight. Downplaying concerns about the aesthetic impacts of wind farms, Jerry Patterson, land commissioner of Texas, tells the New York Times "Texas has been looking at oil and gas rigs for 100 years, and frankly, wind turbines look a little nicer".
This suggests a clear strategy for the Cape Wind project in Massacheussetts: give people the alternative, visible from their front porch.
