What part of PA?
I was watching the news last night and they were talking about the big wind farm being built near Peetz, CO. They want to construct all of these wind turbines up there before next winter but are worried they won't be able to find enough heavy haulers to get the pieces here in time. Are you going to get in on any of that action? Funny thing is that it is Florida Power and Light that is building the things.

Steeler fans are among my favorite rival fans.
They are very knowledgeable about the game, and very loyal to their team, unlike the bandwagon Patsie or Bolts fans.

There used to be a novelty wind turbine at a loscal H.S. after 10 years it was not only paid off but making money. They put another that dwarfed it recently. One was put in my home town, and a family friend put one on his farm that heats his pig complez. I'm not familiar with the tax stuff, but they cost around 2.5 million for the big boys.
A field of them is rather hypnotic actually. They are as much a giant generator as a windmill and are much bigger up close.

Own a bunch of land in a low population area with plenty of wind then lease it to a power company.

Be sure to get the water rights to the land so that you can sell them back to a municiple water district.
