My state Texas now is the leading producer of wind energy. It's used for electricity of course. It's also used for pumping water out of the ground and irrigating farms. That's what the Dutch did for a long time and that's what people in The Great Plains do. Wind power is also used for sailing. If it wasn't for wind energy, our ancestors wouldn't have been able to come over here on The Mayflower. Therefore, if it wasn't for wind energy, we wouldn't be celebrating Thanksgiving. If there's anything I'm thankful for, it's wind energy. Well, let's see. My state Texas now is the leading producer of wind energy. It's used for electricity of course.

In good windy areas they produce power about 35% of the time, so even if using wind one must have another more reliable source available.
