Wind power taking over the U.S.

Here's an interesting article, from Reuters...

Many aim to catch money blowing in the air that Ric O'Connell of engineering and consulting firm Black & Veatch says will total $500 billion in wind energy development in the next 25 years.
"It can be bigger than the entire dot-com revolution," said wind energy advocate and former South Dakota Democratic Senator Tom Daschle. "This can have the same economic impact."
President George W. Bush' said last year that 20 percent of the nation's power needs can be met by wind. Since Bush's remarks, the AWEA and other wind energy advocates have worked to map out how to get to that target.
That would mean by 2030 there will have to be 325 gigawatts of installed wind turbines in the United States, said Michael Robinson of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.
