real estate: Feeling a change in the AIR!!! - SF Windmill Power - 01/08/12 07:01 AM
He's Dutch and who can argue that our beloved SF has the biggest windmill by a span of 14 feet! 
 
After years of diplomacy, you learn not to argue with a Dutchman. 
Don Quixote & his trusty sidekick Pancho Villa agree.
It's big and purported by this Dutchman to be capable of powering water and electricity soon!
We're convinced. Feel the change in the air...
