THIS is about as close as you will get to free energy.

Greg Wortham, executive director of the West Texas Wind Energy Consortium, fires up a PowerPoint presentation and throws some hard numbers at the group. By the end of this year, he tells them, Nolan County alone will nearly lead the nation in wind energy production. It'll be second only to the entire state of Texas.

Texas leads the Western Hemisphere in wind energy production, generating enough to power nearly 600,000 homes. This summer, the state surpassed California to become the largest producer of wind energy in the nation.

Actually, they say they took out an add in "The Economist". According to wikipedia, no one has seen the ad other than the .pdf on the web site.

Wind energy is doomed. It kills too many birds for the environmentalists, and the lawyers will tie-up the courts with "wind-rights" disputes for the next 50 years.

Christ, windows kill too many birds for the environmentalists. No body cares what the environmentalists think.
