OK
1) I'm with Bob, JOhn and Jbee on the subject of whether I care about being seen. I don't care a jot about what is seen of me or being seen or who sees. But I double agree with JOhn & Jbee that one would wish to avoid giving offence, as in any situation not just controversial nudity (unless giving offence had a positive purpose), and, along Jbee's argument, one definitely would not wish to be seen by someone who would then bring bad consequences by their reaction e.g. going to the law. Since one does not know in advance who will take offence and who might act on the encounter to try and censure, in my world considerable doscretion is needed to avoid unnecessary encounters. I think Bob has a solid argument that says he should be able to do just what he likes within reason (that includes being naked!) when on his own, private property and that if someone happens to be able to see that by active looking then tough, their responsibility is just to pass on by with discretion, if they don't approve and they should be severely punished for trouble making as a result of their opinion about nudity.
2) Man on wind turbine - that's so cool! It made me wonder if my mild vertigo would let me do the same if the opportunity arose. I think if the distance from the middle to the edge was longer than a fall to the deck, I think I'd be alright. But if shorter I'd be a trembling wreck!
I suppose one has to pick fairly clement days to go up there! When the rotor is going is there a breeze or is it calmer since the blades have extracted some energy from the wind? I guess near the axis there's be little difference to the wind force. Come on you Engineers! Let's have some theories or knowledge.
And what more unique, private and inoffensive location could one choose! That guy is cool!
But it is indeed a worrying phenomenon that drones are now able to peer and pry almost anywhere. Is there no regulation? You wouldn't be allowed to just take pictures anywhere of anyone if you were on foot. So how does a drone make it moral to pry?
