Cape wind opponents silence other opinions

 THURSDAY, JUNE 3, 2010
Why don't the anti-wind people want you to hear from all sides and draw your own conclusions? Whenever a Cape Vincent resident asks for more unity and dialogue, the anti-wind tells that resident to shut up. When wind companies say they're opening an informational office, the anti-wind says these offices aren't welcome. If you're a respected community member and you're outspoken pro-wind, the anti-wind will make your life a living hell.

In the anti-wind world, actual experts are not to be trusted, but a Department of Environmental Conservation retiree is an expert in real estate, acoustics, whatever, and he's the only person you should see to learn about wind power.

Online anti-wind like Windy, Outlaw, Jefferson-Leaning-Left, etc., devote every day of their lives glued to their computers, stirring up anger through lies and telling you if you live in certain areas of the Cape, you're to view wind power only one way, and you're to vote only one way. That's all seasonal people are to the anti-wind: to squeeze for money and a means of electing incompetent puppets into office.
There's also money in being online anti-wind. On the anti-wind coalition's website, they're selling anti-wind merchandise. Plus, there's a huge "donate" box. Easy cash, if no one's paying attention to where donations are going.

These online anti-wind rant about hating foreign energy companies and wind power. Do they realize computer use is a big drain on Northern New York's energy grid? Unless Windy, Outlaw, Jefferson-Leaning-Left, etc., are using their computers 100 percent off the grid, they're actually increasing profits for a foreign energy company (National Grid) and fueling demand for wind power.

The impetus for this letter, as well as all of Harvey's other letters, is:

I want my money, I want my money, Dammit!

You can fool some of us some of the time, but only a fool would try to fool all of us all of the time.

That letter of his, as most others, was beyond silly. It was bizarre.

Is this moron suggesting we all abandon our computers so we won't fuel the demand for wind power?
I'd hate to rely on wind to supply demand for anything!
His "common sense" gets less sensible with each simpleminded letter.
Maybe he DOES write them himself.

If Harvey does indeed have a ghost writer it makes perfect sense. What sort of fool would want to acknowledge that he wrote this letter. Better to have a dolt like Harvey take credit for it.
