Evacuated Tube Transport (ETT) "Space Travel on Earth" (tm)

The Pickens Plan to eliminate reliance on oil will be greatly enhanced by this patented transportation technology that can achieve 50 times more transportation per kWh than electric trains or cars.

MY VIEW ON UNDERSTANDING THE PROCESSES OF CHANGE.......

Whenever I or perhaps others desire or seek change we have a personal stake and perhaps motivating reasons and factors to influence and stimulate our efforts to bring about such change......this effort to bring about change can manifest itself thru many different forms......my personal and others awareness of the methods used or applied may or may not bring about the desired results I or others seek.......However I personally have experienced some of the most gratifying , rewarding and education… Continue

Thanks for the friend request. It sounds like you have some good ideas to share about change, energy, and education. I look forward to reading more of your comments.

We're all in this together by ourselves!

I've invented a system that produced a ridiculous quantity of oil/acre/year. Over 3x the production of the BEST anyone who is credible has claimed. We've got "next level" funding ready to go. We just need to get there from here. With $100K, we can PROVE IT ALL. We're NAA endorsed. We've got the only continuous, size-selective microalgae harvesters in the industry and investors are ignoring us in droves. WHY? NOBODY ACTUALLY GIVES A @#*% ABOUT SAVING OUR COUNTRY OR OUR ENVIRONMENT IS MY PERCEPTION BASED ON MY INABILITY TO FIND THE FUNDS TO PROVE FOR ALL TO SEE THIS ISN'T QUACKERY, BUT REAL SCIENCE AT WORK.

Anybody?

Thanks for joining the ROUND-UP.
Please add a comment about this early education concept at the site. It's an idea in formation and everyone's input is sought and welcome.

Now that you've taken the plunge remember it's all about the volume of our voice in DC which is in direct proportion to our numbers. Spread the PICKENS PLAN word to as many in your network of friends, family and colleagues as possible. Join your local CONGESSIONAL DSTRICT GROUP and volunteer to lead or co-lead. Our experience in NJ is that having a partner in the process makes it easier, more affective and if you’re lucky enough as we have been to find the right person, way more fun!

We’re very happy to have you with us. With you along, and 1.4 million others, maybe we’ll actually get this thing done. Keep you horse watered and your powder dry, it's going to be a long dusty ride.

1. A day without sunshine is like night.

2. On the other hand, you have different fingers.

3. 42.7 percent of all statistics are made up on the spot.

4. 99 percent of lawyers give the rest a bad name.

5. Remember, half the people you know are below average.

6. He who laughs last, thinks slowest.

7. Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.

8. The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese in the trap.

9. Support bacteria. They're the only culture some people have.

10. A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.

11. Change is inevitable, except from vending machines.

12. If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments.

13. OK, so what's the speed of dark?

14. When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.

15. Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.

16. How much deeper would the ocean be without sponges?

17. Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.

20. What happens if you get scared half to death, twice?

21. Why do psychics have to ask you your name?

22. Inside every older person is a younger person wondering, 'What the heck happened?'

23. Just remember -- if the world didn't suck, we would all fall off.

24. Light travels faster than sound. That's why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

25. Life isn't like a box of chocolates. It's more like

Delete Comment AND NOW , the rest of the story, I live here in southern florida, and am retired, living on s/s and savings.....taxes are extremely high, services and food and shelter also....however, based on ones needs or wants you have choices to either live within your means or adjust to the current financial enviroment....for myself i visit the local barnes&noble book store for entertainment and information, I visit my spiritual place of worship often during the week , which is a great community caregiver as well as place of sharing inspiration..and i make it a condition every day to physcially exercise and workout....I find it gives me many benefits mentally , emotionally, and physcially...I find the people here in southern florida are like the people elsewhere i have lived , they are either working , looking for work, dont believe in working, or cannot work and on some type of care stipend, family or govt....tourism is a large factor here during the winter season...it is noticable at the beach and the restaurants and shops...my judgements, perhaps a third less...than previous years, housing is stalled, but rents are high and going strong for medium & upper quality housing. lower quality housing rentals are cheap with good terms, no security, ist month free etc....the new housing boom, is perhaps 10% of what it was when they were shoveling money out the door to developers, and it will most likely take a year to 18 months to work off the backlog , most likely to foreigners who are bidding on the foreclosures , relly bargains for them , as well as the few american folks who have the means to take advantage of the bargain prices....i find the people here are resilient, hopeful but cautious, which is really a great survival instinct, one great advantage and musing....I find it great to deal with the local service people, no more ridicilous inflated goughing of pricing for plumbing , electrical, or roofing repairs....it appears some things are blessings in these times that our government willfully gave us supposedly for our best interests...thank you monte...take care....cecil

At 8:22am on February 8, 2009, cecil friend said…: Y ou are 100 % correct in your observation...money being a medium of exchange and controlled by the govt that issues it, the more in circulation , the less it is worth, all other factors considered, then consider all the other ways of creating off balance sheet money, private contracts, credit card debt, all the forms of acceptance of terms for payment for goods and services are in competition and expand the demand , here is a way i try to look at it, money and credit used wisely to purchase needs , not wants are benefical to our wellfare, also money or credit used to purchase assets that are or will be needed or wanted by others can be more benefical to our well being...these can be traded, bartered , sold exchanged thru private contracts etc....the problem for some of us during different times of our life, we may fail to get our mind around the situations taking place ,due to fear or hopelessness and therefore surrender to these external sources creating these types of extreme fluctuations in money supply , easy credit , etc, artifically and recklessly created by govt.....which then creates demand for goods and services, etc. as we have unfortunately for the last 7 years, have had done to us, ....as i remember it though , this all started after 9/11 when everything shut down, airlines were losing business, people were scared to travel, everyone was staying close to home, business had stalled, exactly the opposite cause of what is taking place today , but the same result.......the slowing down of purchasing goods and service in our economy.....now, how do we protect ourselves during these times, i think we have to look at each individuals situation to deal with their particular solution, but their is a common solution....first, as always identify your situation, and then adjust your lifestyle to best meet the demands of your particular needs....not wants....make deals, barter, time or effort , exchange good or services with others, money is not the only medium of exchange.....there is weakness and error in ones thinking that they need just money to purchase goods or services....and slowly wean yourself from just looking at living life from this perspective....if this can shine some light on the subject , THEN PASS IT ON . I remember one thing from growing up on a rural farm in western s/w pa.....nothing gets done until you get moving, and the smarter you work at it , the more gets done....thanks for listening...
