A local business owner in NEPA - Mr. Genetti, owner of Genetti Hotel & Convention Center, has sponsored six billboards in Luzerne and Lackawanna counties promoting natural gas vehicles to reduce dependency on foreign oil.

Quote from News Article

"He is a fan of billionaire oil magnate T. Boone Pickens, who is pushing for expanding the use of natural gas-powered vehicles to reduce oil imports. "T. Boone Pickens promoted this idea and it makes sense to me. It should…

Thanks, but I can't afford the prices. I'm still just a volunteer here and pretty much for the film too. :-)

Do you think the college would sponsor a screening? I can be there to help with Q&A afterward and bring Pickens stuff too :-)

Brian,
Curious to hear about what efforts you have underway to small wind enable communities, schools and municipalities. Sounds like you have been looking into it for a bit.

Hi Brian

I have found that petitons are the best way to spread the word AND sign up supporters.

Here is HOW TO TURN THE PLEDGE INTO A PETITION!

I find it easiest to take one pledge, cut off Boone's lines under the pledge and add a sheet of lined paper under the pledge instead. I put NAME - ADDRESS - EMAIL across the top and fill in the first line to set the format. Most are more willing to sign where others have already done so, rather than the single pledge at a time approach. Everyone understands a petition.
I ask if they would "sign this petition in support of T, Boone Pickens energy plan to get us off of foreign oil?" Hand them the clipboard so they can read it. I do not require the signers to give me their email if they are reticent - don't let that be a deal breaker - some just do not want to give it.

Check out the 100CLUB group page to see how others have accomplished the task. (it is the first goup on my page) When you send/fax in 100, let me know, we will gladlyinvite you to be a member of the 100CLUB. Your leadership on this will inspire thousands!

There are over 150 people in the pledge challenge that I know of right now. Surely, there are many more that I am unaware of, as it is in many greetings. Those 150 willl bring 15,000 new members. If each brings just 5 friends, these 150 will be responsible for 75,000 new members.

This is the approach that works best for me - I tried many. Hopefully, this will encourage you to take the challenge, too. CAN YOU HELP?

When will we ever have a golden opportunity like this again?

BEST
Kim

Hi Brian,
Please let me know how I can help. Is Mayfield just south of Carbondale? That's not too far to attend meetings. As you may have guessed, gas is a major issue for me. I'm currently unemployed.That's why I have time to volunteer.
I feel such passion for new sources of energy. I have been experiencing this issue since the 70's, but no politician ever does anything about it. So, maybe we have to take it to the politicians. I'm so glad TB Pickens is heading up the initiative. I wish he was running for president!
Let me know about your next meeting.

Bev
