Wind mills in Illinois

While visiting friends in Illinois, we had a chance to see the wind farm west of DeKalb. I didn't think they were very noisy. They have a cooling unit at the base of the "stalk" that is about as noisy as an A/C unit. The blades are no noisier that a ceiling fan. I'd put one in my backyard if I could hook into the energy it is generating.
