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:
- None. But I am originally from rural Sublette, Kansas, and have always thought that outrageous wind had to be good for something! I am renovating my home and have found that alternative energy for home use is still cost-prohibitive for average Americans like me.
- What excites you about this campaign?
- Again, I've found that energy alternatives for individual use are currently cost prohibitive for average Americans, which is ridiculous. I see people complaining every day about gas prices, but panic is setting in, and instead of being solution-oriented and looking toward the future, they want some kind of quick fix. That time, I believe, has passed. This is the first far-reaching plan I have seen to make a real change. And quite frankly, I'd like to find some way to put a wind farm on the flat-as-a-pancake farm where I grew up, so that I can return home!
- What do you want to do to help?
- I am willing to do legwork and anything I can do in my free time to help the cause. I don't have money, but I have passion.

Blown Away
Everywhere I go, people are complaining about the price of gas and its impact on how they live. I feel their pain. For the first time in life, I have to put off grocery shopping, waiting for the next payday to arrive. I look for little ways to reduce my own waste, drive econom… Continue
