I came across these, I wonder if the Chinese will change their olympic logo to something more relevant?

DK has an interesting post about the benefits of wind power here.
Firstly, according to Centrica, the Uk’s biggest wind farm operator, the cost of 33,000 MW of wind power will be £80bn.

Someone has asked me about the Libertarian Parties plans to scrap Income Tax and this is my response.
