Re: Hurricanes provide a needed function

Being the consensus seems to be attempting to steer or otherwise hinder them whould be insane, how about the feasability of harnessing there energy?Now that whould be an incredable power source,imagine wind turbines that whould withstand 150MPH winds for up to 24 hours and a means of storing the energy. At least enough to have stand by power considering the Grid is always knocked out for up to 2 weeks, i'll bet it'll work better than my Honda Generator and be far less noisey.
