In the midst of a global credit crisis, wind turbine construction continues.

This week, we had a major investment bank go bankrupt, Lehman Brothers, that has been around since before the American 'Civil' war. Stock markets are going down around the world. AIG is being nationalised. Freddie and Fanny have already been nationalized.

And all summer long, as the housing market slumps worse, and banks aren't loaning to each other, much less to business, I have been watching the construction of Dominion Power and Shell Oil companies' wind farm continue unabated.. Some 147 or so turbines. They don't seem to be affected by the global credit crunch. Wonder where they are getting their money from? The Pentagon, perhaps?
