Will the %26quot;Pickens Plan%26quot; gain any momentum? Your thoughts?

• I wasn%26#039;t familiar with the plan, so visited the website. From the site:
  
  %26quot;On January 20th, 2009, a new President will take office. We’re organizing behind the Pickens Plan now to ensure our voices will be heard by the next administration. Together we can raise a call for change and set a new course for America’s energy future in the first hundred days of the new presidency — breaking the hammerlock of foreign oil and building a new domestic energy future for America with a focus on sustainability.%26quot;
  
  I don%26#039;t think either candidate will commit to action in the first 100 days, but I can see both offering at least token support, possibly more. So I%26#039;m going to answer yes. Since the group is gearing up for the election, they will gain momentum. Whether it stalls afterwards remains to be seen.
  
  Thanks for putting this on my radar. The list grows and grows and grows ... http://www.pickensplan.com/
• Well, it certainly has with me. I own a very large ranch and have just begun to research using it as a wind farm on a land lease program. That being said, there are many of us who also think there should be a solar element to supplement the wind farm concept, particularly in areas where there is more sun than wind.
• yes and no.
  just like gore couldn%26#039;t do it.
  but as more and more folks speak out, eventually enough of us will admit that there%26#039;s a problem that the government will have to do something.
