Dr. Scott Brantley, Great Bend chiropractor and environmentalist, was keynote speaker following the convention luncheon at the Highland Hotel, Great Bend, May 2, 2009. Three years ago he started his wind energy business, West Wind Energy LLC, primarily because of an unsatisfactory wind turbine purchase from E-bay. His $15,000 turbine ended up costing over $65,000 to make it operational. Dr. Brantley's concerns also include lack of sales, installation, or maintenance for small to mid-size wind turbines in the state. He vowed, “No one else should have to go through the nightmare of an E-bay purchase as I did.” Stephanie Johnson, LWVUS Board Liaison, [above left] was morning speaker. She updated attendees on LWVUS programs and activitiesand explained the many changes the National League is making to cut costs and increase effectiveness during this crossroads in our history.
