Although the concept of solar power was developed many years ago, the affordibility of solar panels has been out of reach for most. The few who have made the expensive investment in the natural power source have reaped great rewards. This positive impact encourages even the most strapped families to seek methods of implementing solar power in their daily lives. Although powering an entire home is yet out of the question for most, powering the out door amenities may not be.

I noticed that you are in Austin and thought your might be interested in knowing a little more about Natural Gas Vehicle options here in Central Texas.
The Honda GX isn't the only EPA approved CNG vehicle. I drive a new EPA Certified Ford Focus with leather interior and audiophile sound system with Sync and with the tax credits and rebates, it cost much less than the Civic GX. Other vehicles are also available and more are coming soon. Click here for additional details.
There is still only one public fueling station in Austin, but I am confident we'll see more built soon. I'm even looking at putting one in myself. In the meantime, you can always fill up at home the way Boone does with a Phill from Fox Service Company.
If you'd like to learn more about Natural Gas Vehicles, please don't hesitate to contact me anytime.

Happy New Year Joe,
Last year I helped so many members of Pickens Plan learn about personal home energy plans. It's all about conservation of power, and home power generation, things I have been doing at my residence to lower my electricity costs. Send me a friend request a to add me Joe, I'd be honored to have you as a friend here.
BTW, Texas: I just posted an article link on my pickens page about Home Wind Systems in Texas. Your state's representatives, governor, and public utility commission officials are not in your corner with this "weak policy" on Net Metering. Instead they have the tables turned against green power for businesses and homeowners. Texas has created multiple sets of rules for loopholes and you have less rights than people in other states. You should read that article, important.
Please take a look at the executive summary on my page. We are in the process of establishing a nonprofit innovation laboratory in Houston Texas dedicated to inspiring young people to pursue technology careers and to the development of the next-generation of strategic technologies to meet our current global challenges. Alternative energy is a major focus of our program.
Right now, we are in need of people willing to sponsor our efforts or to finding sponsorship for us.
We believe this can be the beginning of an effort that can spread to other areas of the country and create a critical mass of new technology ideas and innovative technologists to meet the challenges.
Any assistance you could provide would be appreciated.
Best Regards,
Norman
