Where the *&^% have you been? We talked about it the last Fall we fished the island.

No boat, back in the suds.

From what Bryan tells me Spence never pays attention, kind of like Block Island Jeff in that way

Yes it is moving forward, yes it should make rates cheaper for the island, and yes we drank a lot of bourbon; in defense that was right after Sandy, we were fishing in coffee milk and decided killing a few braincells was more productive!

Pretty cool ships with the built-in platforms that dig in and then jack up out of the water to start construction

No fish but absolutely one of the best times I ever had on the island.

Why do you thing the rates would be cheaper. Wind power rates are usually higher than fossil fuel power plants. As I recall the Cape Wind project never claimed lower rates to the cape....actually higher.

B/C Block pays more than $0.48 or something for power. For them, it will be cheaper!
