[SustainableTompkins] public meeting on Enfield wind farm Wed night

[michael at windymiles.com]

Thanks Simon for your understanding.  Unfortuneately, the torches and pitch forks came out last night... and mostly from the "pro-wind" crowd (or at least the extremist portion of it).  It's amazing the poor manners and basic disrespect for our fellow human beings that showed itself.  I don't care how ferverent you are about something, this is still a *free* country and even people you disagree with have the right to be heard without rude and interrupting outbursts at a public meeting.  Cudos to our town supervisor, Jean Owens, who did her best to keep the crowd under control.  The meeting eventually did settle down a bit.
