Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

I'm serious, i'm busy preparing for another fookin' birthday. I'd like some assistance in filling out this diary, because we need to let people know what's necessary for their survival. There's much on the internet about The Captain, and how he began the first training program for wind experts, who now are in positions of power in governmental agencies and companies throughout the amurkan scene.

But Europe has now taken the sceptre, so let's get crackin' on detailing where we're going.

I could also write about another of my mentors, who designed the rotor for the historical Gedser turbine, and who began the wind program at Risoe labs, where the Danish industry was supported and birthed from the beginning. (Helge Petersen, are you watching as well?)

As birthday boy, i can't be expected to do this on my own.

Jeez, how many fooking birthdays does one person have to prepare for? After all, past 30 its only the one's ending in 0's that count. I had a b'day this year, but then I'm off until 2021, should I last so long.

I've been accused of being a Marxist, yet while Harpo's my favourite, it's Groucho I'm always quoting. Odd, that.

That position is untenable. Why do you feel it's only the one's ending in 0's that count? Each year is special and unique and worthy of its own celebration. The longer you live the more fooking birthdays you get to prepare for. Simple as that.

Now, there's a mite of a difference between a position being untenable and being one you disagree with.
