hey all, I've known about this for a little while now but never really looked into it. Pickens Plan is a great plan, it is very economically sound, the technology is there, and all that is needed is a push from us to get government to act. i don't wanna start a whole political debate here, neither side is doing much for the cause. but i do want people to discover this plan and read it for themselves. one snippet from the website that is incredibly relevant today: building wind turbines from northern Texas to the Canadian border would provide the Midwest with 138,000 immediate jobs, and 3.4 million new jobs over a 10 year period. all this while providing america with 20% of our energy needs from a free, domestic source. the goal of the plan is to cut off American dependance on foreign oil, particularly from the volatile middle east, and start providing clean, cheap energy that is right here already. if you feel motivated about it please let other people in your area know about it and maybe contact your representative or senator, theres a list of senators and representatives who have said yes. here is the site if your interested in reading up on it-->
