WAYNE HUNT: "They tell me"

Wayne Hunt went in front of the Prattsburg meeting and said "They tell me that if we allow wind development to continue - by 2030 it will generate the same electricity as nuclear". In fact Wayne tells us it's from an article from a local newspaper.

Who is "they" that Wayne listens to? Wind developers? Local newspapers? Mr. Hunt may not be aware that after 20 years of development worldwide, not a single conventional power plant has been replaced. Not one. The Department of Energy doesn't share Mr. Hunt's forecast, they predict only 2% by 2030.

The question we all should be asking Mr. Hunt is simple. Where did he get his Industrial Management degree? Is he an IEE perhaps? How many years has Mr. Hunt managed electrical power generation or worked in the utility industry? What industrial or public utility boards has Mr. Hunt served on since 1999? How many large industrial projects has Mr. Hunt planned, managed or supervised? What's Mr. Hunt's actual experience with Eminent Domain law he's so in favor of?

The plain truth is by his naive statements - Mr. Hunt's knowledge must be limited to what wind developers have told him. His entire spin seems coupled to the wind industry. But to stand up and promote himself as a public utility expert to the people of Prattsburg shows a tragic misunderstanding of Wind's boom and bust history and these developers very short sided goals which end up damaging our homes and neighborhoods.
