When I was in 7th grade I used a lead weight wound around a pulley with a string connected to a motor which was wired to a small flashlight bulb. To my amazement the bulb lit-up when I let the lead weight drop. Why not use mother nature instead of a person to lift the weight?

The plan organizers and volunteers are doing their best to try and have us bring up the numbers of members. However, for some of us, their goal of asking us to bring in 10 new members or just 1 a day may not be reasonable for many.
Many of us don't like "Cornering " people and expressing our views to them.
However, we could DOUBLE our numbers overnight if you could just bring in "1".
Just "1" person is all I ask. Then hopefully they'll just bring in "1", and watch the numbers skyrocket!
Many of us don't know many people they'd feel comfortable talking to about the plan. Even more, expressing our views on the subject without feeling like you're imposing or intruding on them can be difficult for some at best, so just ask "1".
It's easy and here's all you have to do to bring in "1"!
Just talk to someone you know, casually about the plan. Don't give them all the specifics, just enough information to make them curious. It's up to them to make the decision, not you. Let them know about the site, WWW.PICKENSPLAN.COM . But don't just tell them about it, write it on a piece of paper so they'll remember it and not forget! Wait a day or two, ask them what they thought about the plan. They might just say they haven't had time or forgot...give them another piece of paper with the plans address on it. They may or may not join, but that's their prerogative. Follow up with them casually a few days later, but don't be insistant in any way! Then, if you're so inclined, do the same to another "1", and another "1" at your leisure. Nobody is forcing you to run out and do this all at once. Change takes time, and so will bringing in new members, so just ask "1".
The members of this plan are intelligent people like yourself, the unintelligent will probably not even understand the scope, ideals or ideas expressd in the plan, so it's up to us to make the plan work.
Follow up and see if your "1's" have signed up. Then find another "1".

HIGHER GAS PRICES GO IT HURTS THE POOR COUNTRIES LIKE THE PHILIPPINES WHO HAVE TO PAY MORE FOR RICE !!! OUT OF THERE $5.TO $7 DOLLARS A DAY INCOME , WE CAN HELP THEM MORE BY DRILLING AND PUTTING OPEC OUT OF BUSSINESS AND PICKENSPLANS IS THE BEST PLAN I SEEN SO FAR, COZ IT LOOKS LIKE IF FINANCIAL CRISES DOES NOT GET FIX WE COULD ALL BE ON THE UNPLOYMENT LINE!!!

QUESTIONS That need to be asked the Presidential Candidates and have never been answered
14 QUESTIONS That need to be asked the Candidates and have never been answered
If the media would read my blog www.thecandumemo.blogspot.com, they would have some great questions to ask the candidates in the next Presidential debate or in their next TV interview or program for A REAL CHANGE.
Since they have not read the blog see the questions below that have never been asked and need to be answered.
The questions and the correct answers to all of these questions are in my blog which has been emailed, faxed, web mailed and carrier pigeoned to the President (and all of the possible Presidents to be), Congress and the media numerous times.
Some of the answers are so simple that it is scary. The answers are not part of the present Democratic, Republican, Liberal or Conservative programs. They are part of THE WE THE PEOPLE'S PLATFORM from all of the states that are now RED, WHITE and BLUE. They are MIA - missing in action in the present Presidential campaigns and media coverage
AFTER SENDING ALL OF THE CANDIDATES AN EMAIL SUGGESTION TO READ THE DALE CARNEGIE 'S BOOK "HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE", ALL OF THE CANDIDATES ARE NOW DEFINITELY USING THAT APPROACH. Let us see if they can also read and recognize a good idea to solve this nation's problems. Politicians Motto: Remember "ASK ME NO QUESTIONS AND I WILL TELL YOU NO LIES."
NOW I SUGGEST THAT THE SENATORS FOR PRESIDENT "SPEAK STRAIGHT" WITH "OWN VOICE" AND NOT WITH "FORKED TONGUE". THE "SPEECHES" ARE INDEED INSPIRING, BUT WE NEED LEADERS WITH SPECIFIC SURGICAL AND INTEGRATED "SOLUTIONS" AS MANY OF THESE PROBLEMS THAT OUR NATION FACES ARE DRASTICALLY INTER-RELATED.
As FDR and Barack have said "ALL WE HAVE TO FEAR IS FEAR ITSELF". WHY IS THE MEDIA AFRAID TO ASK THESE QUESTIONS?
THE QUESTIONS that need to be asked: :
1. What is the world's most powerful weapon (more powerful than a B2 bomber loaded with nuclear weapons), how would you use it in Iraq as a political solution (NOW DESPERATELY NEEDED TO WIN IN IRAQ)?
General Petraeus, Defense Secretary Gates, and Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff should also be asked this question as they too have been previously sent the answers.
This weapon system attacks the Achilles Heel of Al Quada and other terrorists, It can win the war on terror in Iraq and bring our troops home with honor and with term limits, without cutting and running. Both candidates have personally experienced the power of this weapon system. However, they have never personally read about it or responded to the emails and web mails sent to them about using this military weapons system that is MIA in Iraq.
2. If you know the answer, Has this weapon system been used in the US successfully recently?
3. Would you vote for a 1040 check off box on the tax form 1040 for a WE THE PEOPLE SUPPORT THE TROOPS FUND for $5 of the taxpayer's taxes - just like the Presidential Campaign check off Box? If $5 is too high (and would hurt the Congressional Universal Pork Programs and the Presidential Campaign Finance Program) would they vote for a $1 check off box program?
4. As President would you ask some of the countries, such as South Korea, Japan, and Germany, if we could borrow 25,000 of their troops in each respective country to replace 75,000 of our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan (who we financially support in their country at our expense)?
5. If not, would they each (country) send 25,000 of their combat troops to Iraq and Afghanistan to ease our burden so that we could send home 75,000 of our National Guard troops to serve at home guarding and sealing our national borders?
6. Is it possible using the principles in the THEORY of Tax-Enomics, to lower tax rates and increase tax revenues, and if so tell us the principles and equation used in this theory?
7. What is the hidden AMT Tax that works in the reverse (The lowest income taxpayer pays the higher rate of tax), where a taxpayer who earns $1,000,000 pays this tax at the rate of .006045% and the taxpayer who earns $10,000 pays the TEN TIMES higher rate of 6.20000%?
8. Is it possible , using the Theory of Tax-Enomics, that this hidden "AMT" tax structure be revised to increase tax revenues and to lower payroll taxes enough, that we could use a Health Basic Care Tax to finance part of a Universal Health Basic Care Program, similar to Medicare without increasing the total payroll taxes presently being assessed against all taxpayers earning less than $100,000 per year?
It may not even be too complex for our students of legislative taxation - The candidates, the White House, the Congress and the media.
9. How could we integrate, solve and control (for the benefit of the US Consumer of gasoline to avoid foreign oil import gas price gouging) our problem of dependence on foreign oil imports with an integrated program solution to stop the future insolvency of the Social Security fund?
Can you describe this program in basic detail?
10. What will be our primary source of energy in the years 3000 and 4000, when all of the fossil fuels will have been consumed, and bio fuels will either be limited or non-existent because the world's population will have increased at least hundred fold and will need everything grown to feed itself? Also there will be no where safe on earth to deposit any nuclear waste.
Which alternative energy can be the most cost effective to use because of its unlimited supply for ever?
11. What plan using the Theory of Tax-Enomics can make our country energy sufficient domestically, and at the same time increase tax revenues using lower tax rates, while granting domestic tax credits to US Taxpayers?
How using the Theory of Tax-Enomics can the is plan be basically self financing, reverse our current economic and infra-structure crisises, with the creation of jobs stamped "MADE IN THE USA"?
Would they vote for a Solar Panel WPA program to put solar panels manufactured in the US (with materials and jobs stamped MADE IN THE USA) on 2,000,000 federal, state and local government office buildings?
Would they vote to expand this SOLAR PANEL WPA program to put SOLAR PANELS on 20,000,000 homes in the US?
12. Would they vote for dramatically increased R&D to solve the need for maximum efficiency for a cost effective system for storing and collecting Solar Energy, such as placing them on the roofs of all passenger and freight trains, or by using magnification of Sunlight?
13. Which programs, using the principles of THE THEORY of Tax-Enomcs, having a major change in the tax laws, could have a substantial effect on stabilizing the present home market value crisis and provide a specific program to solve the home mortgage foreclosure crisis?
14. Which programs, using the principles of THE THEORY of Tax-Enomcs - at both the Federal and State Levels, could dramatically revive the US Auto Industry, with alternative energy power sources,"GREEN JOBS" stamped "MADE IN THE USA", and competitively prices for vehicles sold?
There are more questions, but the Presidential Candidate that gets all the right answers to ALL of these questions, will definitely get the keys to the White House with a 4 year renewable lease.
The Media program that uses these ideas and questions in their program will certainly raise their ratings.
Guaranteed those that have not read the blog, will fail to get the right answers.
Other food for thought for all from an excerpt from my blog:
I leave you with one other thought from
“WE THE PEOPLE”.
Politicians, Governments, Presidents, Prime Ministers, Secretaries of State and Defense, Foreign Ministers, Defense Ministers, Parliaments, Congress and Generals make and declare War.
However, it is always WE THE PEOPLE (and rarely, but not never, any of the above) who with our national treasure - the volunteer youths of our country who have to fight and die in the wars.
True statesmen after considering all the consequences from the loss of our national treasure who will only use war as a last method of dealing with radical, totalitarian governments and their dictators that support terrorism.
Just as the pen is mightier than the sword, the "VOTE WEAPON" is more powerful than our mightiest military weapon. It is the missing political and military solution needed today. It is time to unleash its power to win decisively THE WAR ON TERROR worldwide.

25,000,000 Electric or HYBRID Autos - all made in the USA which will be financed to the owners with tax free government bonds. Vehicles will have to get better than 40 miles per gallon and cost with normal equipment not more than $15,000. Special Tax credits will be issued to both the consumer and US manufacturer (all vehicles must be made and or assembled in the USA with JOBS stamped made or assembled in the USA). Two good examples, except for their current cost, of the ideal car would be: A. The Tesla AC Current all electric vehicle has a torque that makes this vehicle "the highest 30 to 70 miles acceleration of a car ever made (tested." This car "has an aluminum extrusion body and carbon fiber top."
Above INFO REPRINTED from AOL
B. (THIS IS A direct REPRINT)
Provoq concept is GM's look at a fuel-cell electric vehicle for the luxury market..
The Caddy Provoq is an all-electric production, using the fifth generation of GM's fuel-cell and two large hydrogen fuel tanks to make electricity for the lithium ion batteries and electric drive motor.
According to GM's spec sheet, the crossover-styled Caddy can travel 300 miles on a 6 kilogram hydrogen fill-up, 20 of it run in all-electric mode from the grid-charged batteries. (A kilogram of hydrogen compressed at 10,000 pounds per square inch is the energy equivalent of approximately one gallon of gasoline).
Once the initial battery charge is depleted, the Caddy's E-Flex system relies on juice produced in the fuel cell (which mixes hydrogen with oxygen to make electricity) to power the all-wheel drive vehicle's electric motors – one driving the front wheels and a pair of individual wheel-mounted motors in the rear.
The system can produce up to 88 kilowatts of power, a 10 percent increase from the system shown just eight months ago in Shanghai, and uses a 9 kW-hour battery pack with 60 kW peak power, versus an 8 kW-hour, 50 kW peak pack in the Shanghai version.
GM claims a zero-60 mph acceleration time of 8.5 seconds for the Provoq, with a top speed of 100 mph.
The concept uses lots of recycled and recyclable materials, features a brake-by-wire system that eliminates brake hydraulics, and has low-rolling-resistance tires from Michelin and solar panels in the roof to help generate power for auxiliary items such as the audio system and air conditioner.
Producing vehicle such as the TESSLER and the Cadillac Provok will be costly initially. However, if the technology used in these vehicles were adapted in a more mass produced US made vehicle with government subsidies and tax exempt financing and by tax credits to the producer and consumer would make this a desirable cost effective alternative to the current gas guzzlers. In the short term, we need a massive program nationwide to facilitate the use of natural gas for transportation fuel consumption. It is true we may have Bio Fuels, including synthetic bio fuels for many generations to come. However, they will be competing for other uses.
