The idoits seem to be everywhere.

But a fun fact though related to the topic, in bigger stats like CA with higher population Density etc...where more people bitch about towers and such like these people. Cell Phone providers actual make towers to look like trees and other objects. If its in a city they may make it look like a wind mill.

This sounds somewhat like the argument against the wind farms that went up in my area not too long ago. A lot of people complained about how it would ruin the landscape. I'm probably somewhat biased to because there are some big churches and crosses in the area and it doesn't seem like that big of a deal to me. If you don't like it, then you don't have to look at it. Just be glad that it's giving you those 5 bars instead of less.

I think wind farms look nice, certainly a lot nicer than a power station! I understand that people can get a bit sensitive about monolithic structures in their neighborhood because it's difficult not to look at sometimes and the landscape is something that should be treated with respect for everyone. I don't think any religious symbols should dominate a skyline out of respect for all other religions and beliefs in a free society, but that's a debate for another forum. The article was really about the funny headline so I don't want to drift too far away from that.
