That's the one thing strikes me in Hawaii, dependence on oil to generate electricity. I remmeber seeing all the rusty windmills near Southpoint and wondered why they weren't running? Of course that was two years ago and I didn't get a chance to visit that area this March so maybe they were repaired and are now running. Be glad the BI has at least the possiblilty for geothermal, I don't think the other islands do?
