Someone said they were confused about a term or meaning T. Boone mentioned on his recent appearance on the Smiley show. Maybe it is T. Boone who is confused. I do NOT believe he has involved himself in the COG issue (cars on gas) much. It is a somewhat technically involved and not easily understood. It is this DISCONNECT that I see in his personal approach that worries me. Someone with HIS money and HIS professed interest in the plan (NOT just the wind part) should have a MUCH better command of…

Hey guy;
Your 2 cents on a theory from Adrian F Cerny- look at his blog if you would, does it make sense?
The process is way beyond my sandbox knowledge.
The link he sends us to is like a how to order site i think. was not willing to sign in- I'm not sure of that.

please call or email me back. Thank you, Norm Powers
I can give you an URL for their patent if you would like to see it.
Mr. Pickens:
You should be talking to EATON in reference to building NG hybrids for Heavy Duty Propulsion vehicles. There building up to 80,000 lb Heavy Duty Hybrid Propulsion vehicles primarily diesel. They are manufacturing for Peterbilt, Kenworth and others.
Mr. Sandy Cutler is the CEO for Eaton.
I have his attorneys e-mail addresses if you want. I am currently in contact with them and would be more than happy in helping to arrange a dialogue. I’ve made them aware of the Pickens Plan. EATON is doing well in this down economy primarily because of their hybrid technology. Their annual sales are in excess of 15 billion dollars. I am a retired EATON employee. The following is a small example of some of their accomplishments. Obama has talked with them. A dialogue with you, EATON, and the Obama administration would help tremendously in cutting our dependence on Middle Eastern oil.

I’m an advocate of ICE. I admittedly have some issues with EATON but I’m not paranoid. I’m only promoting their manufacturing of the HEV. I understand kinetic energy and its transfer of energy - Read my patent.

The following shows its drive. You may have already looked.

Eaton is building their version of the HEV primarily using diesel. – That’s OK. I don’t really give a damn what the ICE burns in the HEV as long as it burns less of it. I began designing the HEV in 1978 for all the reasons you know – embargos, etc - I could go on. I’ve noticed Mr. Pickens conversion from wind to NG. What do you expect he’s a good capitalist? Damn good at what he does too. Does it make any difference what rhetoric or reasons are used. I’m not a tree huger. I just want us to lesson our use of Middle Eastern oil.

I was going to ask you “WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?” until I went to your page and discovered you have DONE A LOT! I was upset with you because you lambasted me on TELL IT LIKE IT IS because I tried a little satire and mentioned the ELEPHANT. I was off message and you didn’t hesitate in letting me know even though you have used satire in one of your blogs. I AIN’T no comedian and I AIN’T no politician. You have many talents that include history. I have enjoyed reading and being educated with the debates you have posted on TELL IT LIKE IT IS. I don’t know if you watch Fox News. You remind me a little of Glen Beck one of their commentators. You agitate and piss people off. Some can discern what you say and others can’t. I’m not as educated in my opinions as you but I do understand your point of view which allows me to compare against my less opinionated perception of my surroundings. We do have one thing in common and that is our desire to eradicate use of Middle Eastern Oil. I can see you love America which is another thing we have in common. I was going to join the debate in TELL IT LIKE IT IS but decided not to because I would have been way out of my element. My talents – such as they are – are elsewhere.

Richard Barnard
