Coober Pedy, Part 3

Just a small rant, maybe Neil Mitchell on 3aw can put it on his fix it list. They have a lot of sunshine in Coober Pedy. Against the law is the population putting in solar power. They can have solar hot water, but no solar power for their whole house. Why? Hmm, maybe it's something to do with the fact that their power supply comes from a privately owned power supply. Oh yeah, they did put in one wind powered mill at a cost of 750k. Now they cost 1 million. One wind powered mill supplies 4% of the town – they only need another 24 of those. Something there smacks of government and corporations working on a hand shake.. I thought that corruption like that only happens in Asia.
