The Big Zephyr

Just back from chasing ringnecks in South Dakota.  1300 miles of road trip and not a single kayak sighting!

We saw a lot of these though.  They're everywhere!

They're supposed to be good for slowing climate change.  Nevertheless, they were not turning.  Not a single kilowatt of current was being generated by the hundreds and hundreds of wind turbines we drove past.  Braumeister pointed out that this was because their blades were feathered.

I think I've figured it out.
