At 3:32pm on October 7, 2008, JMBorchers said…: You asked about military and natural gas. In 96-2000 I was in the AF. A small amount of home vehicles used natural gas and could be filled on the base with CNG. That amount is probably much more now a days. They were promoting it then because it cost so little.

So, for CNG, go to CNGnow.com, for CNG, I do not know about it.

Thanks for friending me. I'm 75 and I saw your comment about your Dad's solar work. I go back about forty years in the business myself, and its too bad that no one would listen to us back then. Now we are in a fix. I have video and a blog on solar energy and micro homes on my Pickens page. I add to it often. I just put up a short clip this morning on the off the power grid micro home.
Please tell your friends.
Thanks,
Walt

One of my bloggers said - honestly just that on a T-Shirt " PICKENS FOR PRESIDENT".... would be a great statement.

At 5:25pm on August 28, 2008, Linda C said…: Do you belong to Eons.com? I am womenbiz on it. Many people do the graphics on it, several just graphic groups.
As soon as we get back from CO I am going to order Bruce a t-shirt with the yardsign on it. I already have a PickensSenior one.

Are you interested in becoming an organizer in your area?

Maybe--But Not Sure What to Organize

Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:

My father made solar cells in the late 60's for his work with Gould. He would attach the small cells to a portable radio, remove the batteries and then hang it from the clothesline outside - and it would work! That was impressive a lifetime ago, but the broader goals of harnessing nature for the good of the planet and everyone may now be reachable.

What excites you about this campaign?

I always knew the importance of producing an affordable energy source and I am pleased for the opportunity to help make it happen in my lifetime. Being a part of this journey to make alternative energy available for everyone is to engage in a bright new challenge.

What do you want to do to help?

I can easily do computer work, love photography and graphic design, and am open to suggestions. What do you need?

Thoughts about cng vehicles

I purchased a new Oldsmobile Cutlass diesel in 1979. The car was a polluter, but got 33 mpg. - and diesel was cheaper than gas - around 30 cents a gallon! It was difficult to find diesel fuel stations at that time...not an experience I would want to relive. In 1984 I had a Dodge Van that had a conversion kit for propane - also got great mileage - but again, fueling was an issue.

Here it is 2008, and the best a new car buyer can expect is no better mileage than I got nearly forty years ago, and… Continue
