Blowin’ In the Wind
Monday, August 16, 2010 at 12:21 
Beauty is truly in the eyes of the beholder. I have been going through the Nevada papers which came the last few weeks while I was traveling, and was astounded to read of the Searchlight residents who showed up to protest the location of a wind power farm near their community. Their greatest concern seemed to center around how these turbines would destroy the “scenic beauty” of Searchlight.
My good son, Conor, and I visited rural Iowa a couple of weeks ago and were blown away (pun intended) by the hundreds of beautiful turbines that were scattered across their picturesque farmland. The three curved blades rotating slowly in a summer breeze could easily be mistaken for pieces of art.
These striking and graceful devices not only were helping make our country stronger and more energy independent, they added to – not detracted from - the scenery of that charming farm state.
Iowa ranks second in the nation in wind energy capacity. A recent report by the American Wind Energy Association shows about 7 percent of Iowa's power now comes from the wind. That's enough to power the equivalent of 900,000 homes. Iowa also leads the country in attracting wind turbine companies, with three turbine manufacturers and one blade manufacturer having opened plants in the state. They have created good, well-paying jobs in small, rural communities that otherwise had little hope.
If the fine conservative rural folks of Iowa get it – why don’t the residents of God-forsaken Searchlight understand this opportunity?
The answer my friend, is blowin’ in the wind –
The answer is blowin’ in the wind.
Nevada, energy, power, searchlight, wind power
