I've seen alternative & sustainable energy technology evolve tremendously in my lifetime, and yet I know there are applications, like hydroelectric energy, that continue to be valuable contributors to our world. One that, sadly, has diminished mightily in most of our eyes, is the water-pumping windmills. At one time they were spread widely across our country, but now they are mostly broken, non-functional, and rusty relics seen here-and-there. Today's guest is Bryce Black, and he has worked for almost 45 years under the name LoTec Windmill Service. We're going to explore this still-valuable energy source with Bryce, and it's role in American life, past and present. Besides Bryce's windmill work, he makes music with Yata and with The Sliced Bread Jug Band. Plum Creek Seeds also runs out of his home.
Past/present religious/spiritual influences: Lutheran, Evangelical Christian, Quaker
