  A reply on Conversation: Live Q&A with T. Boone Pickens: Let's transform energy -- with natural gas.

  Mar 20 2012: He did say in his talk that renewables will not in the near term solve the national security issues poised by our dependance on oil. Natural gas, even if it is only used as a fuel by the 8 million semi's in the US, would essentially mean that the US would be oil INDEPENDENT. We could leave the middle east.

  Mar 20 2012: The Pickens Plan website says that 1.7 million people agree, but the NAT GAS bill still failed on March 15th. You obviously have a chunk of grass root support and can get the attention of policy makers. What specifically are you hoping the Ted community will do? Is this a regrouping of the Pickens Plan with different people in the push for a success-full NAT GAS Act?
