I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, 'wouldn't it be much worse if life *were* fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them?' So now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe. - M. Cole

It’s shocking to think we have had these deadly things in our gardens al this time and nary a warning on the packet. I want to sue the manufacturers but I don’t want to encourage Trump to go after even more money.

Hello Nan. I am in awe of the large brain that figured out something our greatest scientists some how missed. He is so “like a stable genius” because his head gets more blood than most of us because his hands are so tiny. 😀😁🤣😂😉 Hugs

El dumpo, being a stable genius, lives in a stable. Self-respecting scientists know nothing about stables, except they are full of horseshit. Trump knows all about horseshit. He wallows in it daily..
El dumpo also knows all about windmills. Not the garden variety kind, but the great big 100 foot tall windmills that harness the energy in the wind, create electricity, and store it in batteries. You know, the kind that kills birds because the blades are so sharp and go around so fast birds can’t see them, so get sliced to trying to fly through them. Yes, they must circle at about 2 rpms (revolutions per minute). They make so much noise you cannot hear them 10 ft away, as long as they are kept well oiled. Trump would never think to use oil on a windmill. It runs on air, doesn’t it?
Windmill cancer? yeah, if the wind turns the blades, but you never give the bearings oil, probably your windmill will get cancer. But it usn’t contagious. Machine to man cancer? Who is he trying to kid? Oh, yeah, his evangelicals. Does the bible have windmill instructions? No? Then I guess they will all get windmill cancer. Hope it is covered by their healthcare?

There’s dialog from the old Carol Burnett Show that’s fitting here for Trump. Thelma “Mama” Harper (played exquisitely by actress Vicki Lawrence) to her high-strung daughter Eunice (Carol Burnett):

OMG! I can see around a hundred of them wind turbines from almost every room of our house. I’m doomed.
Even wind generation has its conspiracy theorists. There are those who are convinced wind turbines are net users of electricity, not net generators. Their “proof” of this is just as strange and ridiculous as are the reasons why we are being “lied” to.

Barry you need to sue the energy company. You may already have windmill cancer

Two problems:
1. There are 3 wind farms, each owned by different companies. Regardless of whether I wanted to one or all three, it’s irrelevant because…
2. In NZ we can not sue for injury. We have a universal no faults accident compensation scheme. I’d need to prove that I have cancer and it was caused by wind turbines to receive compensation.

Or lucky, for as far as I’m aware I don’t have cancer, and if family history is anything to go by, very unlikely to develop any form of it.
Never the less, I’ll keep my fingers crossed, and continue wearing my tinfoil vest and hat at all times. It does make showering rather uncomfortable, but I’d rather be safe than sorry .:)

Windmills make noise. Noise causes lack of sleep. Lack of sleep reduces one’s resistance to cancer. Ergo, windmills cause cancer. I don’t see why people don’t respect Donald Trump. Even if he’s a puppet, he’s the most honest puppet president in about 50 years.
