More Crap on Small Wind

Do you really believe that utility-scale wind turbines are:
a) Fixed in position, and don’t adjust for wind direction? Just look it up; it only takes a few seconds.
b) Built for industrial rather than residential real estate?
Yesterday, they advertised that their product is designed for low RPMs. Guess what? Power = speed X torque. Low speed = low power. Does low power seem like an advantage?
Also, torque = force X radius. Small radius devices will have low torque, thus even lower power.
Maybe they’re looking for investor capital from high school dropouts.
