Ok, it's a temporary art project, but I don't think I'd be happy with 2,700 glowing windmills added to my course. Vail approves golf course windmills http://www.vaildaily.com/...le/20070103/NEWS/70103002VAIL — The Vail Town Council approved the money Tuesday to install 2,700 glowing windmills on the Vail Golf Course later this winter.

Did you see a recent article mentioning Donald Trump is fighting windmills miles offshore at his new development in Scotland? He seems to be a bit of a tool. Yes? No? Maybe? |

The Donald has never been described as quixotic. But yes... Maybe. |

Yeah, I remember reading about that. I recall he got the windmill folks to back down, but the project was still in trouble for other reasons. |

I made a comment that the greens on the course I played in my league, last year, only needed a windmill to make a fine Putt-Putt course.   |
