Specifically, I have written well documented analyses that explain that the wind industry and other wind advocates have (1) greatly overstated the energy and environmental benefits of wind energy and understated the economic costs and the adverse environmental, ecological, scenic and property value impacts, and (2) misled the public, media and government officials.

Ms. Perry's assertion that I am affiliated with the coal industry is
FALSE.
I do not know Ms. Perry and do not know her relationship to the wind industry. If you know, I hope you will provide that information.
I do not have a web site, but I make my papers available without charge to anyone who wishes them, so many are readily available on the Internet (e.g., at www.windwatch.org and www.tsaugust.org. I invite your review and substantive comment. I especially recommend:
1. "Big Money Discovers the Huge Tax Breaks and Subsidies for Wind Energy while Taxpayers and Electric Customers Pick up the Tab."
2. "Misplaced State Government Faith in Wind Energy."
3. "Facing up to the True Costs and Benefits of Wind Energy."
4. "Errors and Excesses in NREL's JEDI-WIM Model that Provides
Estimates of the State or Local Economic Impact of "Wind Farms."
