Like fields of oil derricks don't do this already? I don't mind the argument but I find it silly that it's never applied to the current fossil fuels that do the same thing.
I agree with you. The skyline and noise argument when talking about windmills is in Holland usually used by the same people that want to build new highways everywhere and those that have never set foot in a forrest or national park. You know, the type that when they go running (or jogging as the call it) in a somewhat 'natural' area wears earplugs to listen to their ipod insetad of to the birds.
