The Congressman did mention "The greatest transfer of economic wealth in the history of the world." or words to that effect. Sounded like a direct quote from Pickens himself.

Profile Information

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:

I follow technology directions and have make some stock market investments based on my research, DD and JCI.

What excites you about this campaign?

That we might be able to create the political climate that will allow the next President to initiate a bold program to make us energy independent in a reasonable and short amount of time. For instance, I believe that we can eliminate petroleum, coal, and natural gas as transportation and home heating energy sources by 2020.

What do you want to do to help?

Not sure

PowerSave 1200

Nice work here on Independence Bonds.

I am interested in the PowerSave Product you mention. Here is a e-mail I just sent my electric company:

I have run across advertising for a product called "Power-Save 1200." It cost about $300 and the makers claim it might reduce you electric bill by about 25 percent.

It sounds too good to be true. I am not an electrical engineeer and do not know how to evaluate thier claims.

Is this a product I should consinder?

Thanks

I hadn't really paid a lot of attention to those previously, but is there credit for having contacted our representatives? I made calls to their offices earlier this week...again not really sure how that whole program works. Any suggestions? Thanks...and sorry if you are not the correct person to contact about this question. Thanks.

At 3:48pm on January 28, 2009, Michael Shawn Kendall said…: Thanks D. C. Palmer, If we can get just one fax, web based comment form, or letter to the President or Vice President there may be a possibility that he may direct the Secretary of Treasury to take action on this idea. He needs our support and he needs funding to make the 10 year goal of Energy Independence from middle east oil he as set happen. Please, at your discretion, if you want to pass this idea to others and encourage them to become friends on my web page do so. Thanks for your support and help and thanks for contacting your representatives. Possibly your contact that you initiated will be the one to make the difference in Washington.
Sincerely and with Respect,

At 1:36am on January 28, 2009, Michael Shawn Kendall said…: Hi D. C. , Would you be willing to share this with the people in your district? Here is a way to help and give tools to all of us for getting more RE projects started. I have been pushing for the sell of US Treasury "Energy Independence Savings Bonds". Savings bonds are normally purchased in $25 increments. This gives a way for just about any American to tighten their belts just a bit by skipping a meal at McDonalds or Pizza Hut and buying a RE savings bond to support a project. I need help pushing this project, I've faxed and emailed many in Congress/Senate already. My email is ke6cvh@yahoo.com. Here is a copy of a fax sent to Nancy Pelosi yesterday:
27FEB09

Honorable Speaker of the House Congresswoman Pelosi,

I am an Electronic Technician Chief in the US Navy with 27 years service stationed overseas. I’m outlying an idea to assist and work with current plans for achieving energy independence. I urge you, as speaker of the house and the driving force to form the select committee on energy independence and global warming, consider for discussion and introduction into the house US Treasury Savings Bonds for Energy Independance.
In WWII America sold war bonds supporting the war effort. When young, my mother told me her primary school raised enough money through bonds to build a tank to support troops. I am impressed with the patriotism and purpose of our greatest generation that accomplished so much.

Selling energy bonds for RE (Renewable Energy) development would lower foreign oil imports and assist with the complex problem of funding. Bonds sold as “Energy S” could support new solar trough plants, “Energy W” to support wind farms, Energy “H” to support hydroelectric plants, Energy “T” to support RE transportation such as electric bullet train routes powered by RE, Energy "C" COOPS for small communities only needing a small quantity of turbines, and Energy “I” for needed infrastructure high voltage power lines to the RE site. Bonds will have the project name and include an artist’s perspective of the project and an American flag. President Obama had great success with the internet during his campaign. In a similar manner, using the internet, energy bonds could have a website listing current projects and an “electronic checkout” could purchase a bond $25 or higher. Simpler methods of payment such as “PAYPAL” and credit cards would be available and after an electronic purchase is complete a color print out of the bond is available with a follow up of the bond in the mail. The website would limit quantity of projects for each category until funding is complete. After a project becomes funded, a new project will be available. A tab on the site will show history and status of previous projects. Purchasers may take great pride in “collecting” and displaying bonds of various RE projects and participating at different levels of financial support. Solar trough plants in the multi-hundred MW size capacity with molten salt energy storage in California, Arizona, and West Texas can provide a major portion of electric needs. North Dakota has potential to support 1/3 of our nations electric needs in it’s class 4 wind zone areas. There are plenty of suitable proposed wind turbine farms now around the nation to significantly increase our RE if funded. Mid sized hydro-electric has not been used in America to it’s full potential. Following the example of our neighbor, Canada, it would provide a significant increase in percentage of electric production. Developing all three we could provide the majority of our electric and heating needs through renewable energy in a "New New Deal" fashion allowing natural gas for transportation as T. Boone Pickens is working for. Bullet train routes have proven a viable alternative to commercial domestic air service and when powered by electricity provided by RE suppliers America would be in the forefront of world technology. Example, I heard of discussion for a commuter train from Denver to Colorado Springs. Such a route built as a renewable energy project with charter requirement legally requiring to only purchase electricity from available renewable energy sources would be a model example. There are many train routes, city bus systems, and government vehicles that can be converted to run from alternative energy sources and fuels. Jobs created would bolster the economy, lower trade deficit, and strengthen national security. I would take great pride in print outs of bonds with graphics of each project I supported and many other Americans would also. The energy bonds could have tax breaks. BLM lands may be a viable place to start for some projects.

I contacted the US treasury department and was told that the marketing department for savings bonds closed several years ago. I was told there would be problems because savings bonds are at the federal level while the projects will be at the state and local level. I disagree and believe that these can easily be figured out in the way of grants to the state and local level using money from the bonds for those specific projects. I was told to check out auctions on the www.treasurydirect.gov website and found them to not apply to citizens wanting to buy savings bonds to support a cause such as energy independance. I was told by the treasury department to look into CREB (Clean Renewable Energy Bonds). I found CREB to be large scale funding that a citizen would not be able to participate in as a US Treasury Energy Independance Bond would provide. If given the tools to participate directly, the power of the citizens of the United States to help achieve energy independance could not be denied. Americans mean well and the Energy Independance Savings bond program will give citizens the power at their level to make it happen. If marketed through a web page, commercials, and to federal employees the word would get out and participation would spread like wildfire.

Mr. Paul Gipe, a resident of Bakersfield CA, an author of several books about wind energy, and recipient of multiple awards as a pioneer in the industry since the 1970's has put a letter I wrote to Senator Dorgan on this subject as well as an older letter I wrote on wind COOP in JAN07.

If ETT technology is patented by et3, then the koreans and chinese would have to pay in the US if they wanted to sell the products here, and even where they are, if you've filed international patents.
In the meantime, what are we supposed to do to help? Just get a lot of people signed up to sign petitions and/or let the govt know we have numbers behind us?

At 11:49pm on July 20, 2008, Daryl Oster said…: Hi MrPalmer

The PickensPlan to transition vehicles to natural gas is a great start toward 100% energy independence. ETT implementation will accelerate reaching the goal faster than any alternative fuel scheme. Evacuated Tube Transport (ETT)™ is patented transportation technology that can accomplish 50 times more transportation per kWh than electric cars or trains, it is cleaner, lower cost, safer, faster, and electric.
ETT Technology
With ETT, air is permanently removed from 2 tubes (one for each direction) along a travel route. Since there is no air in ETT tubes, the passenger capsules are pressurized, and travel in the tubes on nearly frictionless maglev; so travel takes place without air friction or rolling resistance. Linear electric motors accelerate the capsules. During most of the trip, the capsules coast through the vacuum using no power, like “Space Travel on Earth” ™. When the capsules brake, linear generators recover most of the acceleration electricity.
Depending on distance, ETT speed can be up to 350 mph for in state trips, to 4,000 mph for international travel that will take you from D.C. across the Bering Strait to Beijing in 2 hours at 1/10th the cost of airfare. ETT is networked as are freeways. ETT capsules (hauling people or a pallet of cargo) are automatically routed non-stop between “off-line” network terminals that are disbursed according to demand (like freeway off-ramps are).
ETT capsules weigh only 400 lbs yet haul 800lbs of people or cargo as the typical SUV; so a twentieth as much guideway material is required to support ETT capsules than to support big trains. This reduction in materials, and use of present automated pipeline production equipment drops cost to less than a tenth the cost of High Speed Rail, and less than 1/4th the cost of a freeway. Because of automated passive switching, a single ETT tube can exceed 80 lanes of capacity, further reducing cost.
Private Model
The ETT Patent is assigned to et3.com Inc. (et3 stands for Evacuated Tube Transport Technologies), an open consortium. An inclusive license agreement offers any entity incentives to participate in the plan to implement ETT using their “off-the-shelf” assets (materials, parts, technologies, skills, labor, and production capacities). Collectively companies have already spent billions developing ETT; although most are not aware of it yet; for instance, hundreds of companies worldwide make and install pipelines (tubes), vacuum pumps, and the electronics to operate them. Everything exists to start building ETT now. ETT is being implemented in China, and Korea, we can wait and buy it from them (like we buy efficient cars from Japan), OR we can leverage our capacities to beat them to the market.

Daryl Oster
