is a wind turbine a windmill? The answer is no. they have different purposes output and design....so you might just be comparing apples and grapefruits.
lol We all know exactly what Trump is referring to. This is why nobody takes you seriously, Mr. I'm Not a Republican
Can you tell us what your point is? Do they both produce juice when installed to do so?
When's the last time you had a mammogram?I'll give up my Tiger Hawk Windmill when they pry it out of my cold dead hands...
I guess I caught Lymphoma from the damn thing, but my tits are still looking good. ( not as perky as @TarponSpringsNole 's however...)
Other than looking sexy, is that windmill doing anything for your marigolds? Like is it pumping cancer water to them?I'll give up my Tiger Hawk Windmill when they pry it out of my cold dead hands...
The article I linked referred to 77,000 "wind turbines." You are obviously correct in noting that there is a difference between wind turbines and wind mills (which latter term conjures up, at least for me, visions of Holland and the ancient buildings with four or five blades that are attached to the building and move in circular fashion). I am guessing that Trump used the term "wind mill" rather broadly, and to include wind turbines, because wind turbines are mainly what he has been exposed to, both here in the U.S. and at his golf course in Scotland.
I understood what you meant/intended to say, and understand that your point was to mock trump, and there are certainly enough opportunities to do that. But in your post you used "windmills/turbines", My point was that windmills don't do the same things as wind turbines..not even close. They were created to be wind "mills".
first of all, still not a Republican...conservative, yes, and I made that clear long time ago.
my point was that a windmill is not a wind turbine. You can produce juice from just about anything is installed to do so....but, a windmill is not a wind turbine. They were created for totally different purposes. Now if you want to make a windmill into an electricity producing "machine" you can but a windmill was created to harness wind for things like cutting wood, grinding grain and pumping water.
You know damn well what ShitStain is referring to.
Wind turbines almost certainly AREN'T the world's greatest contribution to renewable energy. My guess is that solar panels, which are essentially ubiquitous, produce FAR more energy than wind turbines. But I subscribe to the "all of the above" credo when it comes to energy. (That even includes, for the short to medium term, nuclear energy, problematic as disposal of spent nuclear rods is.)
So much losing in America under the dumbest kid in 4th grade in charge and his band of cosplay characters.
well on that I'll agree...like I said, my only reason for my post was that Bear "intimated' that they are the same with the "windmill/wind turbine" post.
I can't disagree with anything you posted. I personally think it was dumb to cancel wind projects when $$billions have already been spent and the affected states had approved the projects. Cancellation and just writing off the money already spent and the potential future energy just doesn't make business sense to me.
That's racist to the Japanese...... Beetles....
No, Bear posted with the knowledge that Trump confuses the two terms, so when Trump was referring to windmills, he really meant wind turbines.
I'm well aware of the difference between a windmill and a wind turbine. I live in Iowa, they're everywhere. This is nothing new to me. What I'm laughing at is you attempting to make it sound like Trump isn't referring to wind turbines when he says windmill.
That would be a wind pump which is different in “purpose, output, and design”. Now you’ve thrown hammers into the comparison.
I’ll wait for Ned to chime in before I’m definition shamed
C'mon we all know Trump is the King of NuanceI'm well aware of the difference between a windmill and a wind turbine. I live in Iowa, they're everywhere. This is nothing new to me. What I'm laughing at is you attempting to make it sound like Trump isn't referring to wind turbines when he says windmill.
You're a good lil keyboard warrior for him though, Mr. Not a Republican Only a Conservative
Yesterday Trump couldn't even remember the word for "video." He said "motion cameras," yet ol Ned thinks he knows the difference between a windmill and a wind turbine, and uses the terms accurately.
I think you missed my post where I said that Trump called the wind turbines "windmills", and where I said a only made the distinction because an OP used the terms together.I'm well aware of the difference between a windmill and a wind turbine. I live in Iowa, they're everywhere. This is nothing new to me. What I'm laughing at is you attempting to make it sound like Trump isn't referring to wind turbines when he says windmill.

I did no such thing. I used two separate words in order to make sure that I covered the waterfront there.
