Wind Farm in Lake Michigan?

Wow, check out this site that describes a project to build a ~2 gigaWatt wind farm out in the middle of Lake Michigan...! It'll be too far from shore for people to see and thus bitch about... and freaking 2 GW! That's huge! The site also has a little ticker that shows the total tons of CO2 emitted by burning coal in the US starting in 2007 (up to 656.5 million metric tons).

The site hasn't been updated in 2008... so I'm not sure what that means. If I wasn't so swamped at work I'd look into it more, but alas, you'll have to figure that out for yourself. :P

Thanks to Walti for the link!
