I this is about the best thing I’ve seen in the WSJ in a long while…
My Plan to Escape the Grip of Foreign Oil – WSJ.com
One of the benefits of being around a long time is that you get to know a lot about certain things. I’m 80 years old and I’ve been an oilman for almost 60 years. I’ve drilled more dry holes and also found more oil than just about anyone in the industry. With all my experience, I’ve never been as worried about our energy security as I am now. Like many of us, I ignored what was happening. Now our country faces what I believe is the most serious situation since World War II.
In fact, here’s the video from the Pickens website:
An excellent plan, also, let’s close that Enron Loophole as well. That would really help as well. I think that if we would stop making this issue a Political wedge and more of a matter of personal importance, we could get much more done.
T. Boone Picken’s Website is here.
Let’s just hope the Democrats and Republicans take this issue seriously and not like a Political Wedge.

I like what Ive seen of him, you can go to his website. If you want to know more. Kind of reminds me of another oil man, who ran for president. Could Pickens have presidential aspirations ?
No idea Pete, he is 81, I think. I think he’s just trying to his part to help.
