i was at my parents this past holiday (in Michigan), and they told me of these 'electric monster aliens'. well, that's what i call them. turns out there are 32 windmills all part of an electric wind farm... which has the potential to produce 53 megawats! these suckers are enormous - somewhere around 400 feet tall. it was a surreal experience, to be sure. all i kept thinking was 'mercedes'... i guess my Freudian slip was showing.
here's a small news clip.
we drove about an hour north of where my parents live to see them, and i brought my camera. here there be monsters...
