Illinois is the Prairie State and home to the Windy City. And sometimes, when standing out in that prairie and feeling the wind racing across the state, you begin to wonder if there is anything between here and Kansas that is slowing down the wind at all. With people thinking more and more about alternative energy sources, it appears sure that wind power would be a logical source of energy for Illinois.
