This isn’t a particularly silly sign, more a fantastic view. Here you see on your approach to Palm Springs 15 of the 3,600 wind turbines (number according to the renewable energy geek who led the tour through the wind farm) in the San Gorgonio Pass.
Here are a few more:

That looks familiar. We have lots of them in our part if the country, too. Mixed feelings about them.

They really thrill me. I saw one being hauled down the interstate one day somewhere in the middle of the country and they are utterly astounding in scale. I’ll take them over a Fukishima any old day.

They are astonishing at ground level.

I find them gracious, and more pleasing to the eye (and less dangerous) than a nuclear plant. Having said that, I have never seen as many together as there are on this picture!

Change all those ugly wind turbines to ugly oil derricks and see how many people tell you how beautiful they are. To me, they are equally ugly, but people have been brainwashed into thinking that wind turbines are a good thing, when they kill wildlife directly, and oil only kills indirectly.

Wind energy is expensive because of high maintenance costs of the turbines but oil isn’t blameless. Wars in the Middle East?

People say that wind turbines spoil a view but I really like them, I find them majestic and rather impressive.

I love them. Himself hates them. I’m not sure they are economical. I think we should all go with solar.
