Satire: We must abolish wind power

NPYP: We must abolish wind power because of World War I and II.

Yes it is true; the use of wind power is a constant reminder and an insult to all the millions of people that suffered and died in the world wars. And the reason for this is steel.

Steel was used to kill, maim and terrorize countless millions of people from 1914 to 1919 and 1939 to 1945. It was used in rifles, in tanks, in artillery shells and hand grenades. All of it culminating with the steel birds Enola Gay and Bockscar dropping atomic bombs on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Steel and war are forever linked because you simply cannot wage war without steel.

The connection between war and wind power is steel. Practically every wind turbine in the world uses steel. Steel is everywhere in them: in the tower that holds up the turbine; in the gearbox; in the bolts that hold it together, just to mention a few examples. This of course means that wind power always connected with the use of weaponry and war.

Wind power is an insulting tribute to the memory of those who died in the world wars. Turning away from wind power and, in turn, weapons and war should be a true lasting legacy and memorial of those victims.

This is too funny…but is it any less crazy than this?

Burlington rally opposes all nukes

As evidence that nuclear weapons and nuclear power are connected, and should be opposed jointly, she cited Iran — which has claimed to be processing uranium for peaceful purposes but which U.S. leaders contend is preparing to build bombs.


Remember, any country that claims to want to smelt steel for windmills could be secretly diverting some of that steel to military purposes! For that reason, I propose that we ban the proliferation of steel-making capabilities. If they want steel, they can ship iron ore to an approved steel-making country and we will ship them the finished product of their choice…
