Whole Empires were born and sustained on wind power! Denmark uses it to survive! Oil is not the end-all solution, just a passing phase in the way things really are, a temporary convenience, a novelty item, with a beginning and an end! The world will return to a more humane pace with its demise! We await that day with heartfelt anticipation!

Where is the innovation? Oh… We’re now using kites ;) that’s cooler than sails… However we’re just one step closer to where we should have never left. Diesel engines are ok; nevertheless they should have never been used "instead of" whereas it could have always been the auxiliary power whenever there was no wind available… BTW; still looking forward to see if it ain’t all a football field sized joke :) The funny thing is:
