Obama Pushing Off-Shore Wind Farms

I'm skeptical of the push for green power generation for environmental sake. I do, however, see it as a good thing for us to not have such a dependence on oil given the general instability of our relationships with major oil countries. Obama is pushing for off-shore wind farms and ocean current generated electricity. Interesting thought, though I wonder how many that were against off-shore drilling because it would ruin the view will be for this. Or is this okay since it's "green"? The good news is that they estimate we can generate twice our current energy capacity.

When Stealing Copper, Make Sure It Doesn't Have Power Running Through It

Apparently, China is buying so much copper that the price has doubled in the last four years. This has caused some to think that stealing copper is a good idea. Seems that for one person, that was all the thinking they did as they attempted to cut a power cable using a hacksaw. A search of local hospitals has not been successful in finding the person responsible.
