I was sitting in a restaurant in an area that had hundreds of windmills scattered across the countryside and overheard a woman complain that it was windy. She went on to say it was all because of those windmills, they never had windy days before the built the windmills.

This was in an area that gets tornado's frequently.

The stupid will believe anything.
