Ha ha :D I've witnessed a full scale windfarm "brew up" in my village
A Wind farm was proposed on the fen by our village, a nearby resident decide this would not do and so started a campaign. Now this campaign was based soley on one ticket. That wind farms = noise/vibrations and that noise/vibrations would cause:
Structural damage
Deafness
Depression
Sleep deprived madness
Tooth loss
The mass exodus of EVERY single wild creature in a 5 mile radius.
And very quickly things got nasty, petitions were circulated, posters posted, banners erected, people came out in favour, people came out against. Local life all got a bit heated. Until finally the application was granted and the Farm went up. (very interesting to watch is was as well, any civil engineering fetishists would get a lot from seeing them raise the blades to the top)
And lo the fateful day came, when they would be “started”
Earplugs were bought, children driven to relations in the city for safety, ornaments sellotaped to shelves, Doom was surely upon us........
what they started them YESTERDAY??? They’ve been going all night? They are going right NOW???? but we can’t hear them....oh

It's astonishing how many people campaign against wind farms near them
and even more astonishing how few of them request a nuclear plant instead.
It's almost as if people want the convenience of electricity on demand but think it's reasonable to insist that someone else has to put up with any noise or mess from it.

Once in the pub someone raised the point that they would ruin the majestic flatness of the fens

Going back a while to the late 90s when everyone in our area was getting FREE interwebs from a cable underground (hell, I'm not very techy and can't remember the details) except our street.
It turns out that the NIMBY next door objected to the road being dug up to lay said cable, garnered some support from other residents and the application was denied.
A year later he complained to me that he had to pay for his internet connection and tie up his phone line while others in the town got it free and it didn't interfere with their phone lines.
I told him to go to the council offices and see who objected to the cable being laid and to go round their house and shout at them.
Some people just don't like any sort of change.

Help us choose the new Question of the Week
Another Thursday, another QOTW vote. Choose from:
- Churches, mosques, temples and holy places (and how I desecrated them and will burn in HELL)
- My disability
- Ever had your heart broken? The day Barking Mad Sharon told me she didn't want me to piss on her tits ever again was the saddest day of my life
- Things that make me cringe. "Fingers down blackboards, Goatse, two girls shitting. These are a few of my least favourite things"
- Ever stood up for your rights? It ended badly, didn't it?
Vote closes after lunch. Today, I have three sandwiches from Tesco's "Reduced to Clear" shelf, so there is plenty of time.

Kind of edgy today I have to return to work tomorrow
and I have to get to the depot for 06:17 which basically means I have to wake up at 04:15 to get dressed and ready and walk about a quarter of a mile to catch the only bus heading into the city centre at that time which when I get there I have to walk another quarter of a mile to get to the depot. Saturday is even worse as I have a 04:15 start so looks like going to bed Friday night is a bit pointless.
