Common sense isn't.
After a few years in the wind and sun, the Prism Kites windmill was retired at the end of 2004. As shown at right, the blades were faded and shredded, in contrast with the clean and colorful original shown in the photos at left and below left.
The Windmill (window) web cam was also retired in late summer 2003. A couple old photos are below.

This page did not automatically reload, so hitting Reload was required to update the image. A new image was usually uploaded every 10-12 minutes or so. It's usually a pretty quiet neighborhood. Between ms windoz, the webcam software and cable modem, the camera regularly went "off-line" for hours at a time. So, the picture was often old or blank. As seen at above right, the last photo was uploaded in August 2003. The previous version of this page is here.
Here is a page with images from several web cams.
| Quote of the moment |
| Some people might ask, if everything is an illusion, what is the use of getting rid of illusory suffering with an antidote that is itself illusory? The answer is that illusory suffering is the result of causes and conditions that are also illusory. Even though pain is illusory, we still suffer from it, and we certainly do not want it. The same is true of happiness. It is an illusion, but it is still something we want. Thus, illusory antidotes are used to get rid of illusory sufferings, just like a magician uses one magical illusion to counteract another. |
