Common sense (usually lacking in government officials) dictates that the turbines will negatively affect home values. For example, if two identical homes are listed at identical prices, but one is next to a turbine, and the other is not, which one would you buy?

Fortunately your version of "common sense" does not dictate values Dilbert. See the part of the column that says "Secondly, the numbers just don’t bear out any impact on sales." Sales prices haven't been impacted, period.

Joe, you obviously haven't tried to sell a home lately.

Oh right Dilbert. The windmills are killing the housing market across America. I forgot. Silly me.

Numbers are verifiable facts. Your opinion is just that, an opinion.
