Are you interested in becoming an organizer in your area?

Yes

Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:

EV activist in the past (prez of Sacramento chapter).
Following alt energy informally for decades.

What excites you about this campaign?

Looks like it could scale well enough to actually help significantly. Clever idea to shift source and use en masse. (Though I have some reservations.)

What do you want to do to help?

Just learning right now. Depending on what I find I may get more involved. As I said, some reservations; I'll address in forums etc.

Hello Richard, These new roof mounting residential wind turbine kits are shipping now. They are sleek, attractive, and well designed. These are actually a home appliance on the roof, much like an antennae or satellite dish. They are as easy to install as other home appliances, like dishwasher, home theatre, etc. It's a nice clean way for you to begin your Personal Energy Plan. These systems are inexpensive, easy to install, scaleable.

Your Wind blows stronger in winter, Your Sun shines stronger in summer. This hybrid wind/solar system combines these cycles to give a more even flow of energy year round. This homeowner sized wind/solar system provides free power for your home. Many customers have found it easy to become customer/dealers of our kits. Customers can become a dealer with no further investment, they see quickly how people are easy to get interested.

I have used the same systems save money on my electricity costs from day one and Richard, you can too. Your local wind resources are so good in Michigan. Check these windmaps and see can you pinpoint what number your area is in. Zone 2 is OK, anything over 2 is (very) good. First double check your wind resources from the map and links below.

Would you say that T Boone was being partisan if an Obama clip was first? T. Boone has met with both McCain and Obama so he is being fair.

Check out a new elecrtic airplane at www.CoolingEarth.org
The future is ours! I am working on 11 new solar projects in N California.
With a good energy plan, we drill now, the oil is available for 15 years, so in 7 or so years we can be a net exporting nation again which helps pay for our renewable energy to solve climate change- HaveFun
