Boone goes back to the whiteboard

When we first reported for Pickens Plan duty on July 8, 2008, we set out with one goal - reduce our dependence on foreign oil. You may remember Boone's white board presentation explaining how the whole plan fit together. Two years later, here's Boone's update to the presentation.

I don't care if you are a rich oil tycoon. You are are a rich oil tycoon because you have the vision and foresight to see that we should be using the resources we are sitting on (something an 8 year old could decide as a good option....but not a politician).

@gracetime Hydrogen is not feasible in cold climate states. (Winter time) You cannot pour water out the tailpipe to ice the highways.

Mr. Pickens.. You have a well thought out plan for elimination of 50% of our dependency on OPEC. I also understand you would like to recoup your 200 million investment in the Windmill industry. While you may think this a problem.. your investment has set the solution for eliminating a good portion of the remaining 50% . Use the Windmill energy to create hydrogen (hho) via electrolysis for use in autos. See Youtube Roy McAlister Hydrogen Fuel - Engine Fundamentals - Geo Ride 2 of 2

talk to auto makers, do not be a road block, use your influence to make vehicles available, stations useable, price acceptable , and possibly make it tax positive, and yes, emphasive the fact that the rest of the world is using cng., Spend your money wisely, build stations, do not block other station building, let the public sector thive, thrive , thrive......
