    Of course. I'm forward looking and that's the future. I think we should put far more money into it.

    1. we are sending 700 billion out of the country for oil. Some of that goes to countries that support terrorism. If we can reduce that by any amount, it's a plus

    2. He supports wind energy, course he is installing a wind farm in the Texas panhandle, but still, clean energy

    3. He supports vehicles on CNG(compressed natural gas) furthering the reduction on importing oil plus cng has fewer emissions and is cheaper.

    All in all, good ideas even if he stands to make a buck..

    I believe in wind energy and natural gas but we will never be completely free of our need for oil. I don't think he has said just say not to big oil. He is big oil. I think Wishbone Pickens remark indicates that you realize his college loyalties and his millions of dollars he spends on a failing second rate football team.

    He has made no secret of his investment in the same- the question becomes, will the oil lobby allow it? As a big investor in America, for better or worse, why would he sabotage that? I'm more concerned with those who have plenty of money that can be moved about the globe like dominoes- Cheney's corporation that now headquarters itself in Dubai, etc. 700 billion a year and growing is our oil expense.

    Getting away from energy from oil is a pipe dream. Ain't going to happen because it won't work. They llike to talk about electric toy cars as if we can power all of them with solar or wind. We could never generate enough power from solar or wind to provide even 30% of what we would need. If it sounds too good to be true, its because it is.

    Not "Wishbone". Not even T-bone.

    That's T. BOONE Pickens.

    And since you don't even know the guy's name, I doubt that you know there is very little in the field of energy that T. Boone Pickens has ever bet wrongly on.

    i think of the only way quite think of roughly it is not attempting to discover the obstacles to human beings identifying to purchase the product is extra attempting to replace the packaging and make it look extra cutting-edge and likewise getting the product in and out undeniable view next to something of the different products. do not ferret it away interior the area of the keep next to something of the organic products maximum persons do not bypass there! positioned it astonishing on the shelf next to the conventional products with some form of massive pink celebrity on it or something. to not point out that i'm not particularily loopy relating to the flavour of ginger, hops and clay in my toothepaste. What precisely does organic recommend besides? what's the marketplace familiar definition of natual these days? Is it incredibly ALL organic or do you in basic terms choose a undeniable share of things to be organic to stamp that in the time of your label? style of like how finished wheat bread in basic terms has to incorporate a small % of finished grains to be waiting to label it "finished wheat" and hike up the fee. as quickly as I examine Tom's factors i'm purely as perplexed as as quickly as I examine Crest or Colgates. in my opinion Poloxamer 335 and 407 does not have the hoop of an "all natual" ingredient. interior the tip i could desire a sturdy reason to not use the different extra classic manufacturers earlier i could evaluate switching.

    His plan has a lot of merit, and it is a least a plan which is more than our elected officials have been able to put together.
