[quote=Anonymous]I'm been using it because a huge data plant is going up near my community. So there's some irony, but it has been very useful in quickly compiling data such as the power it will use compared to current power consumption in the metro area where I live and generating capacity in the region. It's also been helpful in getting information about noise issues. It got me a list of states that have enacted regulations, what's happened in states like Virginia, and so on. This information has been useful in formulating the right questions to be asking local officials, since a recent presentation to the community was given by kind of a jerk, and people are really freaking out. But I'm also using online searches (although very hard to find unbiased info, either it's entities promoting data centers, organizations opposing them, companies selling cooling and noise reduction services to help developers respond to environmental and energy concerns, everyone has a pitch). I grew up with a dad who always challenged EVERYTHING. Buying tires? buying ice cream cones? Salesperson or kid at the counter gets a third degree about the ice cream volume in the large size vs the small size. He'd do it to us as well. Sometimes it drove the rest of us up the wall but definitely learned from him. [/quote]
