# Sorry to hijack this thread a bit,
but has anyone else had a message asking if one of their images can be used in ZOO?

Is it real or a blag?

# They're actually asking now?
I know they were just stealing a lot of images.

it's bloody david bellamy, innit.

dont't get me wrong, i'm all in favour of renewable energy, but i just don't think this is the way and the facts have been glossed over slightly for share holders, offshore is by far the bvest way to go, rather then ruining the landsacpe of britan with them.

# Coolness
I've had the creeping feeling that they were being desperately oversold. Nice to have something to back that up.

# government targets for windfarms are that they run at 30% effeciancy
and it's really only offshore ones that get near or over that mark.

they have also pushed through the development of britons largest turbines in devon, at over 400 foot high in a mid devon vally just above the dartmoor national park. like the ones in cumbria they are fleetingly outside the boundry of the designated national park where any application would automatically be turned down.

# they should just get lots of fat people to sit on the bases
a few weeks up on the moors would do them the power of good, when they lose a few stone or die just replace them with some more.
