Corn is really not a viable option, I think we have already established that will not be any sort of focal point to our need to become independent.
Today I am in Texas and shared a table with a guy from Halliburton who told me about Natural Gas p...
I don't really think of T. Boone Pickens as an Eco Freak seeing how he made all his money in Oil.
I see him as a Capitalist who is Capitalizing on an Opportunity on America's Soil which will create new industries we have yet to discover.

I am very interested in setting up a natural gas fuel truckstop / filling station
and electricity generating facility
on my property at the intersection of I 70 and I 77 in Ohio.
We have natural gas on site.

Desiree,
It seems to me that power stations with and solar. But when see that we have 54 years of Naturel gas We need to start thinking about cargo trailers with soloar panel on the top to support batteries on th rig. Refrieration unit that you ca...
Yes, I read the article and it mentions "The Nite System" but not Joel Harvey's Solar Technology APU which actually out performs "The Nite System" and provides Heat also.
Joel is on Twitter as I noted above and has a profile in this trucking foru...
I was happy to see that Land Line Magazine had a paragraph ( 3rd form the bottom) describing your Green Idea. I was a bit confused though because the way it was written almost sounded like the idea is being used. You'd have to read it for yourself...
Hi Wayne:
That is very simialr to my "Green Idea" that has been posted here since March I think.
I just posted an additional comment about the satellite units on my article "The Truck Stop of the Future"

My idea for a make shift truck stop was to set up portable power stations with batteries and solar panel and wind generator on a pole mount and set them up around perimeter of parking area that would serve truckers. These portables would be linked...
This occurred to me before but as of yesterday when I read about the trouble with USPS , it seemed that satelitte offices would be a good addition to truck stops also.
I am forever trying to find a way to buy stamps and mail things where I can fi...

Profile Information
- Are you interested in becoming an organizer in your area?
- No
- Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:
- I am a Truck Driver interested in Green Technology & esspecially reducing Idle Emissions,
I have ideas myself which would hold everyone accountable but I see the first step in bridging communication to folks who are resistant to new ideas.
I like discussing it with other Truckers because they will need to adapt & I see Mr Pickens as a true leader.
- What excites you about this campaign?
- That our Country can really pull together and make this happen. It's like watching the first Railroad be completed.
I'm interested in seeing our country change directions to become more self-sufficient, this will take hard work, hard choices and pulling our head out of the sand.
- What do you want to do to help?
- I often talk about the "Pickens Plan" on Twitter & I am mentioning it on My Blog because many people have not heard about it at all.
I Share Ideas, and one I have of my own for a Stationary Unit.
I recently came in contact with a man who created a Solar APU that can be converted to Wind Energy for Truck Temperature Control.
I do this to bridge communication to make Pickens Plan more relevant to a Truckers Life.

The Truck Stop of the Future
Technology is often born of crisis, not because it is the correct thing to do. Take for instance the knowledge of Alternative Fuel has been around for years yet the general public is just now becoming aware of it.
Recently, I watched some old news reel footage of Henry Ford and George Washington Carver from the 1940’s where Henry Ford took a bat to a prototype vehicle that ran on ethanol and was made from so… Continue

My GREEN IDEA to reduce Truck Idle Emissions
I currently live in Texas, when I am able to get home.
Mostly, I live in my truck delivering Americas Food & Clothing.
California is where I was born & raised.
I am of a Family of Migrant Field Workers who came to California before the Freeways.
I grew up at the beaches in Venice, Oxnard, Malibu, Arcata, Trinidad, and Carlsbad as a child of the Welfare System.
After a life of struggles as a Single Mother, I am now an “Over the Road” Trucker.
I fully understand where the miscommunic… Continue

Taking Action and Spreading the Word
For me, 2009 has already been a Magical Year.
People are listening and waking up for the first time in so many years.
In the 80's and 90's I worried about our youth, who would one day be caring for me in my Golden Years and how disconnected with reality they seemed to be.
Seeing how so many people from very different walks of life are coming together NOW, and saying things; UNPOPULAR things has inspired me.
Seeing young adults wanting to get involved in the future of our World, and Our Count… Continue

Truckers learning to Go Green
I wasn't always a Trucker.
I went to School late in life but didn't quite make it through my classes at University of Las Vegas where I was majoring in International Business/Accounting.
I was happy though that my unfortunate turn of life events brought me to Trucking.
Now, I want to bring some of my other skills to help bridge communication.
I believe Green Innovations will save our Country & the World.
I write My Trucker Story on "Ask the Trucker - A Day in the Life of a Lady Trucker"… Continue

Union theocratic gov Divine of J said… - Harvest Time
Every seed takes time to germinate.
So too in the fields of the soul.
We must never give up and sow
because the results do not
immediate to our eyes.
Let us wait with patience.
In the right moment, the seeds
have driven in the soil of hearts,
there will produce mature fruit.
Understanding and sow Joy, Peace and
Courage, Forgiveness and Love.
Jesus bless you have a good nigh

- So glad you like my PP page. I know it's a little negative but we are living in such a rapidly
changing world our society has rarely experienced or seen since the Great Depression.
Your BLOGS are a) Needed, B) Admirable,and C) Protected speech under the First Amendment.
ABC World News Tonight did a story on Congress members using Twitter several nights ago
(using it during Obama's speech in fact).
As soon as an appropriate TUNE comes into my Head/Heart, I will record the backing tracks for this Energy song. Story songs tend to be very LONG, so I will have to splice the MP3
file into 2 equal parts to get it onto my MySpace music pages. As soon as it's On-line
I will send you an Email with the URL address.
Safe driving and Keep letting the World know of your concerns re: Fair Treatment for Women
Drivers in Trucking. I'm proud of you and your on my daily Prayer List.
