I am sad that this thread has disillusioned me about Mr. Pickens. I was laboring under the belief that he was a freethinking visionary. And I come to find out he's just a greedy businessman.

Just call me Don Quixote.

I don't know if I like him or not.

But I love saying his name.

We walk around the house all the time saying: tboonepickins.

Like if something is good, you shout it! There's cheese left from yesterday! TBOONEPICKENS!

Or if something is bad you say it chastisinly: Who didn't flush, tboonepickens???

T Boone was the guy who funded the Swift-Boat Vets campaign smears against John Kerry in 2004.

But now he cares about the environment. :?

And then he's going to take that money and donate it to the OSU athletic program.

Pickens is a businessman who's invested millions of dollars into wind and natural gas

He also bankrolls many Republicans. Coincidence ?

T. Boone is featured in the Sept. Texas Monthly magazine, and his cover photo has him styled like James Dean in "Giant". Love it.

I give Pickens credit. Unlike our fucking useless gubmint, at least Slim is proposing some sort of workable plan. The dunces in Washington, however, keep holding hearings and investigations to "discover" what they've known for fucking decades.

Oh, and BTW, didja know that Iran is in the process of switching its vehicles to natural gas, so they can sell more of their oil to us stupid bastards at 120 bucks a barrel.

I wish there were more opportunities for wind power in my area. Our rates are going up again. The only place here allowed to have a wind turbine in the new expensive Harley dealership. And they had to practically blow everyone on the city council to get it approved.

Pickens is a businessman who's invested millions of dollars into wind and natural gas. Of course he wants you to sign on! Not that there's anything wrong with that.

His natural gas bridge idea makes sense.

I'm going to vote for him.
