Wind capacity is growing exponentially, and manufacturers are moving aggressively to expand manufacturing.
By the time the first third-generation nuke comes on line, wind power could be delivering more electrical power than all the nukes currently on the US grid; they would be supplying roughly 30% of 2004's total consumption (up from 0.36%).
The wind potential from the top 20 US states averages about 1.2 TW (may be an underestimate).

Wind power is the fastest-growing form of energy in the world—increasing at a rate of 25 per cent per year since 1990.
When wind interacts with land, it becomes more turbulent, and loses some of its power—hence the reason that most windmills are located on lakeshores, in valleys, and on ridges.

 snopes.com: Blowin' in the Wind
Svedburg brought up an old story that a high school student named Lorre Wyatt had written "Blowin' in the Wind" and sold it to Dylan for a thousand dollars and, while carefully avoiding saying Wyatt had written the song, she managed to sow a large seed of doubt by implication.
Nonetheless, this piece of minutia would later be seized upon by conspiracy enthusiasts who claimed it as evidence that Dylan recorded "Blowin' in the Wind" and then, upon finding out that the song hadn't yet been copyrighted, took advantage of the situation to publish it and claim it as one of own compositions.
"Blowin' in the Wind" was published in Broadside #6 in May 1962, a full year before Dylan's own recording of it was released, and it was in just such a publication that Millburn High student Lorre Wyatt first came across it.

 Insurance Scrawl: Blowin’ in the Wind: Insurance Coverage for Wind, Rain, and Wind-Driven Rain
Wind is a covered cause of loss; certain risks were identified by name in the exclusions section.
The insurer urged that because wind was the covered cause of loss that created the opening, the wind deductible necessarily applies, even if the damage was from the entering rain.
The Second Circuit majority reasoned, however, that the wind deductible applied only where wind was the covered cause of the loss; given how the rain exclusion was structured and how formally that defined rain from a wind-caused opening as a covered peril (A!), the wind deductible did not apply.

 Blowin' in the Wind - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Blowin' in the Wind" is a song written by Bob Dylan in April 1962, and released on his 1963 album The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan.

 Southwest Windpower
ANDY Kruse, vice president and co-founder of Southwest Windpower, was asked whether he thought the cost of wind turbines was coming down to a point where it is financially feasible for most people.
The costs for wind turbines can vary significantly, Kruse said, pointing to three key factors: the installation cost, the average wind speed in a given area, and what the energy costs are for the utility.
In the wintertime, he said, the wind can reach 25 mph because there are no leaves on the trees acting as a deterrent.

 Blowin In The Wind
PV installers are discovering today what wind installers on the Great Plains learned half a century ago; you need to rely on a gas generator for the sun-impaired season.
A wind generator, tower, and long wire runs are still more cost effective than a comparably-sized PV array on a non-movable fixed rack, by a factor of two to three.
First, the wind system or PV array are sized for their respective peak generating seasons rather than their worst seasons (summer for PV and winter for wind).
