Turbines Jammed Down Your Throats

It's time for everyone to use their real names and get out the truth.   Falmouth Residents Got The Wind Turbines Jammed Down Your Throats   In April of 2007 the Town of Mattapoisett stopped the wind turbine projects because they made NO economic sense .The news article was titled  " ‘Economic sense’ blows down wind turbine plan."   Here is my quote to the news media in 2007:   "We don't want any turbines in residential areas," Mr. Haggerty said. "We've been living in fear of losing the values of our homes. It's like nobody thought about how the residents felt before jamming this down our throats."   The Town of Mattapoisett listened to it's citizens in 2007. The Town of Falmouth chose to go ahead and look where it got them.   Falmouth now has health problems and economic problems. Why didn't the Falmouth Energy Committee do its "Due Diligence?
