Ridiculous that the only legitimate complaint against this is that it is an "eye sore." A small sacrifice for a massive gain. Additionally, I think they look really cool.

I also think they look cool. I’ve tried to understand the eye sore complaint, but I can’t get past their disregard for the need of renewable energy. Electricity has to come from somewhere, and I swear people think it’s just magic.
