Alternative Energy

Gerry had been quite keen on the concept of alternative energy, that is, until he went to a seminar in downtown Houston sponsored by Al Gore, Lady Gaga and some illustrious professor from the University of Phoenix (on line). The argument for wind and solar energy was compelling until Al suggested Gerry mount solar panels on his wings to generate power as he cruised, and have a small wind turbine fitted to his beak to take advantage of the high wind speed as he dove. The question was, where was he supposed to put the batteries, because a cord sure wasn’t going to work? . . . . . David, Sf.G.

Billy was growing more concerned by the day; his check for developing a wind power alternative energy system from the government hadn’t come. He was beginning to doubt that it would, and he was miffed. If Solindra could get $500 million in government-backed loans for s solar/electric system that didn’t work, why couldn’t he get a measly $5 million for his wind system? While not perfect, it did pump water as promised. Must be more of that sequestration nonsense . . . . . David, Sf.G.
