I want to know what my fellow Scots think about this? Do you live in the area? Kinda reminds me of the 1983 film "Local Hero."

Good call. My friend, Alex, and I are actually working on a film about this right now for Current. We've spent a lot of time on the site where the course may(!) be built, and we're going back again tomorrow to shoot our final interview with someone who lives right next to it.
The town is so violently divided over the topic that the local pub won't let us film there for fear of a riot breaking out. We've talked to lots of people who are for it, and spent time with the protesters against it. And it looks like we won't find a resolution anytime soon... but Trump and the Scottish government seem to be changing their minds daily! So, you never know. Anyway, stay tuned for our film. We'll post it in about 2 weeks!

It's not quite as clear cut as 'Local Hero' because so much of the local community actually supports the plans. -
Thanks for the update. I enjoyed your film.
