I used to believe that the semi-trucks that transport livestock, actually were used to collect wind throuhg the slats on the side. The driver drove around, collected the wind in the trucks, then released it at lakes or the ocean. This was the conclusion I came up with when I learned sailboats used wind to move. I figured you had to have a way to guarentee there would be wind to move the sailboat. The first time I actually saw cows in a livestock truck was really sad and confusing. My mom had no idea how I had come up with the idea.
