Just caught this headline over at Yahoo News: 'Mammoth $200M wind farm proposed in Iowa'

I know that herbivores produce prodigious volumes of methane, which could be used for generating electricity, but REALLY!

A Wind Farm is a collection of wind turbines in the same location and used for the generation of wind power electricity.
Mammoth due to the size of it... nothing to do with animals...

Here is a pic of what they are talking about... (sorry to bust your bubble) 8)
