Come on out and join in! This is a great opportunity to bring friends who do not know about Pickens Plan or who are new members! Thanks for your support! Sam

wtwo has answer to energy and they will do whats right
WTWO can use coal and other wastes to create energy, it has no co2 output and cleans up the enviorment, its cheap; do whats right and check them out
Energy Inc. develops renewable energy technologies and applies it to new generation power systems. Specifically, W2 Energy Inc.'s plasma assisted biomass to energy plants utilize state of the art technologies to produce green energy, both fuel (sulfur free diesel) and electricity, at the most efficient cost in capital investment and production per/barrel, per/Megawatt.

W2 Energy Inc. has seasoned management and cutting edge technology. W2 Energy Inc. owns a large technology portfolio of patents and know-how that has been extensively validated and ready for commercial production.

The W2 Energy BPR Biomass Plasma Reactor breaks down biomass or coal using the chemical energy stored in the biomass itself; the plasma acts as a high temperature catalyst. Unlike typical plasma reactors that utilize convection of the intense heat produced by the plasma, our BPR can produce enough Syngas (H2, CO) to feed a 10,000 barrel per day synthetic diesel plant and 100 Megawatt steam turbine with a mere 4 MW input. Since our unique process works in this manner most if not all the CO2 produced by the process is converted into Carbon suboxides in the form of humic acid and is mixed within the ash to produce high grade organic fertilizer. Therefore the process is completely C02 neutral even using coal or peat as base fuel.

Georgians For Energy Independence will meet tonight at Applebee's at 6:30 . We will not have a formal speaker but if anyone wants to share their ideas or how their projects are taking shape please feel welcome to share your infomation with the group. We had a good turnout last month once again and I hope to see all of you again. Maybe Allan Croft can update us on his solar installation project in Rocky Face.

Georgians For Energy Independence will once again have it's monthly meeting in Dalton Tuesday April 14th at Applebee's at 6:30 if anyone has any useful information please feel free to share it with all of us. Our Virtual March was very successful . Both of our US Senators Saxby Chambliss and Johnny Issacson have signed on with the Pickens Plan but in the 9th District our Congressman Nathan Deal has not. I have contacted Congressman Deal and in a lengthly 4 page letter he explained to me why he doesn't support the plan and I have to say I don't understand his stance and I also don't think by not supporting the Pickens Plan that he is truly representing the majority of the 9th Congressional District so if everyone would email him I think we can get his attention and bring him onboard. Hope to see you all Tuesday. Don

Okay all Georgians For Energy Independence don't forget to check out the Virtual March is starting and so far we have over 4,500,000 marchers so we are indeed the Pickens Army today and we will get stronger as we move forward. If any of you have any suggestions for the April speaker or any ideas for the program please let me know . As you can see from the negative comments below I got some flax for not being at our local meeting which I would like to remind everybody that we are just trying our best to do our part and if you see anyone new at the meetings and I'm not there please talk to them. As usually happens being a volunter is a thanksless job but regardless of the negative input we need to focus on the positive and as a group move forward like we all have since day one after all we are the Pickens Pioneer group and we are walking the walk . Please contact as many people as you can on your contact lists and let them know about this weeks march. So far it is really going great and I think we are getting our message across. Also please contact your senators and congressmen to let them know how you feel. I'm glad to say our legislators from District 9 in Ga. are all onboard and backing us . I just got a communication from Saxby this morning supporting our last round of initiatives. March ON. Don

Sherie, you make a lot of assumtions it looks like. We will have April meeting even if it's just a few of us old die hards that like to get together and talk and there were a few of the members at the Feb and March meetings but it was very informal and obviously you didn't talk to any of them. Sherrie this is a volunteer group and everyone from anywhere is welcome to come and when you do your due diligence you will see that we are one of the few formats that anyone can attend that wants to and ask any questions they want to. No it's not a big meeting as most of the converstations are online but hey at least we are trying to do the right thing and up till now no one but you has complained.No one wanted to moderate while I was gone and since it is totally a volunteer group that I put together from scratch the very first day that T Boone started I actually found it very offensive that you who had never been active or come to any of the meetings were blogging like "Don doesn't do his job" when in fact I don't have a job I'm just doing what I can here and with all the other groups I belong to around the country to get something done. You obviously joined up after I had told everyone that I was going to be gone for a couple of meeting but the regulars knew it . Also we alway use the 6:30 till 7 time slot and we will continue to even if there is not a big turn out. We have had as many at 50+ show up for the meeting and as few as 3 or 4 but it doesn't matter as long as people know they can come and meet face to face. At this time I don't have a speaker lined up for April but that doesn't mean there will not be one. I am going to continue to try and help educate American and also volunteer to help T Boone educate American about Alternative Energy in as many ways as I can and if you are serious about learning or helping maybe you should direct your energies in a positive way and instead of critizing do some positive and bring something to the table if you are able to . If not stay in touch with the other members online or at the meetings so you can learn. Our Jan Speaker Alan Croft is doing an installation project now at his house if you want some hands on common sense knowledge of how to do it. Alan is a pretty smart guy and was kind enough to share his knowledge with us. Also the previous speaker before Alan was Pete Marte who owns a solar installation company in Atlanta. and he is also one of our Congressional District Leaders. I am also the District leader for our congressional district which is seperate from our local meeting. Even if you don't know anything about alternatvie energy that is not a problem as not many people do so yes you could moderate a group without a lot of knowledge . I'm doing what I can hopefully you will do what you can. If you have any specific questions you need to blog them to several of the groups that you can join and there are hundreds of them out there now with some really smart people . If it's solar I suggest the South Florida group that I belong to they have some brains and are a very large group. So who are you wanting to bring in as a guest speaker? I will appreciate all the help I can get and yes I will be gone and not attend every meeting this year . I travel a lot. This week I'm heading to Zurich Switzerland and then to Paris but if all goes on schedule I will be in town on the 2nd Tue. Sorry you were dissapointed in all of the local members but like I said it is just volunteers trying to help each other and the community.

Don,
We saw your message that you would be out of town for the Feb. meeting but that those who wanted to attend could do so anyway. The three of us decided to go ahead and attend. We arrived at Applebee's at 6:25 p.m. on the evening of the meeting. There were already some people there. We were told that they were having a real estate group meeting and not a Pickens Plan meeting - that occasionally you used the first 30 minutes for Pickens Plan when you were in town. I saw nothing posted about no March meeting and I check the posts daily.
I am already signed up for the Virtual March and stay in touch with many other friends through the site. As far as leading the meeting is concerned, I would be glad to if I had any experience/knowledge/background concerning alternative energy. It would be pretty silly to have a leader with no knowledge of the subject. We were hoping to gain more knowledge at the meetings. As far as other groups go, I haven't checked them out to see if they have meetings or not, but the Georgians for Energy Independence does say it meets monthly. I assume there won't be an April meeting either?

Sherrie, somehow you must not have gotten my message that I was going to be out of town and out of the country during this time period. I am looking for someone to help with the meetings when I am out of town and out of the country as often happens. We have had some great speakers and have had our meetings as you may not no longer than anyone in the country and we were the very first Pickens Group to hold a meeting in the USA . We are very proud of this fact. If you or anyone you know would like to become active and help with the meetings that will be great. Also don't forget about the virtual march that is coming up. We have a lot going on and welcome everyone to join. Most of the Pickens Plans don't have nor have had any meetings much less monthly so hopefully we are doing a good thing in Dalton. Unfortunately there are periods of time when I'm in Costa Rica that I don't have internet access but that is just part of being "in the jungle". If you have anyone you would like to bring in as a guest speaker please let me know. Also everyone that wants to talk at the 6:30 meeting to share their ideas and what they have been doing is always welcome to talk and everyone is always glad to listen. The real estate meeting starts at 7PM right after the Pickens Meeting each month it is not part of the Pickens Plan. A lot of the real estate meeting attendes are also members of the Pickens group and show up at most of the Pickens meetings to discuss what they have going on with the projects they are familiar with. Alan's is our best hands on project that is in this area now but several more are scheduled to start. Don
