People who live within the shadows of the blades have vision and nausea problems. Soybean crops within 60 yards radius of them are about 1/2 the height of the remaining surrounding area. Personally, I think they are an eyesore. Beautiful out in the desert but ugly when they break up the serenity and landscape of the prairie. Anyone that lives within a few miles of them complains about the noise and a vast majority of the families that have leased land to the power companies for the windmills (about $600 a month per windmill) regret doing so." That is a quote from our son who lives in Wisconsin with windmill farms near his area.
