An excerpt:   "BEDFORD, Pa. -- As a child, Neal Buterbaugh rode horses along the dirt roads of Dutch Corner, a basin of farmland in the crook of Evitts Mountain. With its glittering creeks, weatherbeaten barns and emerald hillsides dotted with livestock, Dutch Corner exists much as it did 100 years ago, said Mr. Buterbaugh, a semi-retired builder. "They like the seclusion," he said of its people. "The unchanged atmosphere." These days, however, some 21st-century changes might be in store for Dutch Corner and other areas of Bedford County. Developers are scouting the ridge tops with an eye toward building wind turbines, towering three-bladed machines which capture the wind's kinetic energy, ultimately converting it into electricity."
