Hello there, my name is Steve Sexton. I posted an article about energy independence for American industry at www.vocgen.wordpress.com.”
I want to share the article with Americans concerned about our energy situation.
I hope you enjoy the article and find it encouraging.
All the best,
Steve Sexton
Please accept our apology for Helen’s solicitation! We hope all who sign in are doing so to help us achieve energy independence.
But with this being an open site and anyone can join some sign in with other intentions.
Best; Tom
I just joined the NE Fla group. We have strong winds here all the time. I think wind energy is viable in this area. We also have power outages all the time. I would like to install a stand-by system from wind power rather than a gas generator. I am not a do-it-yourself type and have no background in electricity. I live in NW St. Johns Co. and would like to find a local/regional co. that sells/installs a cage type turbine. This area would not allow a turbine on a pole but a roof top model might be ok.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

NEW MEMBERS: Thanks for joining...Please do a good deed today before you have a chance to forget or get busy with other things! Pickens can't singlehandedly solve the problem of the $700B outflow to pay for foreign oil. That is why he is asking each member to sign up 5 others members on the Pickens Plan. Surely you know at least five other people that would support a real plan to reduce our dependence on foreign oil NOW... please take this to heart; the survival of our leadership position in the world and our economic prosperity at home is at stake – please contact your friends, family, neighbors and our legislators today.
PS. If Pickens succeeds all forms of alternative energy will benefit from this movement. He has a workable, achievable plan. All viable AE solutions will get a huge boost if the Plan can reach 1M members in 2008.

If you know someone in the press- get them to cover this.
If you know someone who blogs- get them to cover this.
If you can write to a Congressman/woman- get them to understand this.
If you know someone who is in the public eye- ask them to support this.
On the Pickens Plan web page click on Community, then click on Groups, then on Communications Support - Resources for Members. Here you will find a wealth of ideas, suggestions, sample letters to Congress, useful links etc.
Jay,
TRANSPORTATION is the master key to basic survival, and the cornerstone of the economy. We all know that transportation presently depends on oil production, and oil production is peaking. We must focus first on transportation – it is the highest priority.
The PickensPlan to transition vehicles to natural gas is a great start toward 100% energy independence, but is a stop-gap measure till we can transition to all electric transportation. Electric energy is strained without adding transportation demands; so we must drastically improve efficiency .
Evacuated Tube Transport (ETT) is a patented technology where travel occurs without air friction or rolling resistance (like “Space Travel on Earth”); ETT can accomplish 50 times more transportation per kWh (or carbon credit) than electric cars or trains. ETT is silent, low cost, safe, faster than jets, and is electric so it can make maximum use of wind or PV power. I invite you to visit my page to learn more about ETT

I got our group (Pickens Plan South East) setup. Thank you again for letting me be a part of it.
