san francisco: 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...

The Third Candle said; "I am Love! I have no more strength, the world sets me aside, not comprehending the … (4 comments)
