It's funny how some ppl are saying that the election sent a clear signal to the Democrats that they are going in the wrong direction. I think it sent the message that ppl want the two parties to come to an actual agreement on something. If democrats are two quick to move, then the republicans are snails! I don't care who is in office...we need energy reform!

I wouldn't sell the gas stocks just yet. If the US son't embrace natural gas then there is a waiting market in the rest of the world. Due to low domestic demand the US is now the world's #1 exporter of natural gas and we have only ourselves to blame I guess.

Well, it looks as if we won't be getting anywhere with the Picken's plan now. With the "no" party poised to take their seats in two months, there will be way too much debate and "thinking" going on to feasibly go forward. We can't say we didn't try, though... :( ...selling my gas stocks... later...

Indie Film “Haynesville” Will Premiere November 23rd On CNBC

“Haynesville” will premiere on Tuesday, November 23rd at 9pm on CNBC. The one hour documentary will repeat that evening at 10pm, 12am and 1am.

The show will also air on:

Sunday, November 28th at 10pm.

“Haynesville”

When the people in rural Northern Louisiana learn they are sitting on a fortune, they struggle to weigh their big dreams against the safety of their community. Some will take the money and run while others learn to negotiate with the big energy companies who are looking to drill into the trillion-dollar natural gas reservoir that lies deep beneath their homes. Will this be easy money or the fight of their lives, in what some are calling the “new gold rush”?

Let’s get to 120 by 11/20/09

Army:

What a couple of weeks it’s been and I have lots to report and something very important to ask.

There’s a new Natural Gas Caucus in the U.S. House of Representatives which is headed by Rep. Tim Murphy (R-PA) and Rep. Dan Boren (D-OK). The more than 40 bi-partisan members of the caucus held a major hearing on Capitol Hill. The Natural Gas Caucus talked about how the development of America’s natural gas resources will help set America on a path to energy independence and create millions of new jobs. It was a great event and an important message to get out there.

But here’s the really important part.

We’ve got just under 100 cosponsors of the NAT GAS Act (H.R. 1835) in the House—and that’s great—but I think we can educate more Members of Congress, build on that support and do a lot more.

Click here to email your Member of Congress and ask them to become a cosponsor of the NAT GAS Act.

I think we can get at least another 20+ cosponsors in the coming weeks so I’m calling on every member of the Army to reach out to their Member of Congress right now so that we can get to at least 120 sponsors by November 20th. I’m calling it 120 by 11-20.

I’m going to be working the phones and I need you to as well. Army, we can get this done and show Congress that it’s time to end our dependence on foreign oil.

Click here to email your Member of Congress and ask them to become ...
Stay tuned because we’re going to post regular updates about our progress and highlight those members who are working to get us off foreign oil.

Let’s keep the pressure on!

– Boone

P.S. We recently ran an ad in the news publications which cover Capitol Hill. Click here to view the short video we did about this really unique ad. It’s getting people’s attention.

Natural Gas is the Way to Go!

Comment by Dani Lanz on September 21, 2009 at 4:10pm
T. Boone Pickens had an op-ed essay in the Indianapolis Star which reminded Hoosiers that, although high oil prices have dropped off their radar screen “the total amount of U.S. dollars we ship overseas to fund our oil imports is still staggering.” It's easy to write on and submit it to your local paper:

Boone wrote:

If oil stays at the OPEC target of $75 a barrel, we will export nearly $300 billion — a third of $1 trillion that could, and should, be cycling through the American economy instead of the economies of the Middle East, North Africa and South America.

Seventy percent of the oil we import is used as a transportation fuel as gasoline or diesel. Batteries and fuel cells are not ready for widespread use, Boone said, but he wrote:

We have a domestic fuel that can replace imported oil. It is natural gas, and we have a lot of it. According to a recent study we have 2,000 trillion cubic feet of natural gas, enough to last for 118 years.

It’s not all about the money. Jobs are a big part of the need to stop depending on imported oil.

The United States should look for every possible way to create more domestic jobs. Jump-starting a natural gas vehicle sector would help do that. From manufacturing, to refitting, to maintaining vehicles, to increased drilling (and providing the tools to do that) and upgrading the nation’s distribution system would produce tens of thousands of jobs starting within weeks, not years.
