Thats the truth.

These people crying about a few thousand birds killed during an oil spill every 10 years but these wind mills are killing about 30 million birds a year. Plus they have killed over a hundred workers. http://www.caithnesswindfarms.co.uk/accidents.pdf

You dont even want to see some of this stuff - pictures of guys stranded on top of a burning windmill with no way to get down. They did not make it.

The bottom line is that windmills are lethal and cant make money without taxpayer subsidies.
