   hey SK,

   No hard feelings on the Mulley blog. I disagree vehemently with you on this one point but think other than that you’re probably a top bloke. I’d much rather debate this down the pub!

   Of course, you’re still an ass

   Sorry

   MJ, no wirres.

   And for the record, my employer makes network equipment. We actually built (and run much of) the AT&T and O2 networks. So anything that increases data traffic (which leads to more sales for us) is fine by me.

   appreciate your use of my wisdom…you could also add “one data point does NOT make a trend”…would be nice to hear from you again. Hope everything is well

   Hi Seamus

   Good to find an Irish science blogger — I’ve been trawling for a while and haven’t found many. Simon alerted me to your site yesterday, thanks to a plug from Damien Mulley — I’m compiling a list of Irish science blogs, and added you to the list (hope that’s okay?)over at my regular science listings site.

   Hi Mary,
   I am happy to be included in your list. That will pump up my ego nicely! As a lowly Engineer I am a wannabe scientist

   Hi There,
   I just came across this posting about wIND ENERGY I’ve become really interested in energy all of a sudden or maybe it has something to do with the fact that Eirgrid want to build a supersubstation across the road from my house in the middle of a thriving farming community…Do you know any organisations that care about what they are planning for our landscape and environment. This Wind thing has gone to their heads completely AT ANY COST!Green party suppoty Wind/An Taisce support Wind/Teagasc?IFA/ What’s going on? Our Beautiful country is being destroyed and no one except the country people like myself care? Any Advice?

   Hello there Maria. I am going to guess that you were reading one of my posts about Spirit of Ireland? I think you may have mstaken my opposition to theyr overblown ideas with opposition to wind power in general. I fully back the idea of expanding our wind generation capacity.

   It is a subjective thing as to whether turbines are ugly or beautiful. Personally I like them. I get to see the huge windfarms here in Austria all the time so I know what they look like.

   As for groups opposing wind development, I am sure there are some out there. You don’t have to far to find a group to back pretty much any belief, I believe there is even one that maintains the earth is flat. Unfortunately I can’t say that I know of any anti-wind campaigners.

    Thanks Treasa. I used the update of yours to do a general house cleaning.

    Hi Seamus,

    I’m a member of St Michael’s rowing club in Dun Laoghaire. Here’s a link to our website http://www.dunlaoghairerowing.com/index.html

    On August 21st 2010 we’re running a rowing race from Dun Laoghaire to the Kish lighthouse and back, with fundraising in aid of the RNLI. It’s a race with a long tradition going back to the dublin bay hobblers that worked out of several of the ports along the east coast.

    We’re putting a poster together to advertise the event. You have a beautiful shot of the kish lighthouse taken back in 2007. We’d really appreciate it if you would consider allowing us to use this image- (crediting the source of course). If you agree to this could you possibly send us a high resolution version of the image? Rather cheekily we’ve already used the image on our website for the event(http://www.dunlaoghairerowing.com/events.html), but if you aren’t happy about this we will remove it immediately.

    You can contact me at my email address which I included in the boxes above or at our club email address: info@dunlaoghairerowing.com

    Thanks and best wishes,

    Julia
