Also, what happened to the time-lapse of the build or is that merely deemed the last leg? (actual fitting of turbine)

Time lapse camera has been there for several months now but the time lapse videos which have so far been released have been underwhelming. Should be better when the towers start going up.

Presumably they've been knitting the stages together as they go in order to make it more "whelming" in general?

Are they even advertising the improvements to KH members as a "going forward, here's an example of our GF AND KH live data? or just giving that detail to GF shareholders?

And another thing I have noticed is that the picture of the wind turbine is an animation with the turbine rotating and seems to be true to the RPM rotor speed. :geek:

Yes I really did time it over a minute with a stopwatch and counted the rotations. :ugeek:
