birdguy, i agree you have not posted anything at all that warranted any of the criticism you have just suffered here. No alarmist words and no emphasis at all on how many birds were killed by wind turbines. I even just copied this of yours
A friend was helping with bird surveys in areas where fields were being considered. He tells me that it seems that if their reports show a lot of migration activity they build the towers elsewhere. Which is a good idea as the blades are getting longer and longer and the towers correspondingly taller, thus killing a lot of birds. https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=170264655
which in fact as you felt does show appreciation for the care wind turbine people give toward birds. You just referenced it again with your ..
"First I am not spreading alarmist oil industry propaganda, as you word it.. I have never said anything of the kind. I pointed that studies being done before the fields are built have been helpful in placing the fields where they do the least harm. And I have a friend who is doing those studies for the wind energy people."
I was going to post it in reply to your saying you were leaving here forever. Ended up saying it here as i agree with you that you did not do either of the two things laid on you.
Please, if you have any more interesting news in future, or just a good birding story do consider visiting again. I for one, repeat, found your posts interesting and informative. And not deserving of any of the criticism laid on you.
