Peak Wind explanation is suspicious

Letter from Dale E. Olson
Valley City, N.D.
    Peak Wind looking seven generations ahead??? What kind of idiots do they think live in this country? This is the Native American way? Maybe they should look back seven generations: What would you see back there?     Well, I will tell you: You would see ponds of water. You would see native grassland, prairie roads you could travel, and no ‘no hunting’ signs... Well, these are the same people, regardless of their Indian blood, who have drained every possible pond, destroyed every bit of native grass they can and closed every prairie road they can and posted every single acre they farm so that no one can hunt there. Why is this?
    It won’t be long and any trees on their property will be gone, too. It is just a matter of time. I’ve lived here 57 years, so I am aware of their intentions. Also, they claim FP&L will destroy the roads out here. Well, what seems to be destroying the roads that we pay taxes on? Could it be the semi-traffic between Noeske Seed Farm and I-94? Road restrictions were taken off for these people to the south, which means they have more rights than the people living north of us. Imagine that. I had never even heard of Peak Wind until after FP&L were established here.
    Ninety-nine year lease? Well, if I were investing the millions that FP&L are, I would like a lease like that. Look at the farmers and landowners that signed wetland leases for a lot less. And those are 99 years? Seven generations down the road? This country may not even be here. Something to think about.
