Weekend Words: Pickens Plan

“I’ve been an oil man all my life, but this is one emergency we can’t drill our way out of.”

Said as only a Texas billionaire can. That’s T. Boone Pickens talking about his plan to stop America’s “addiction to foreign oil” and built wind turbines. His site is full of grand sentences such as “The Pickens Plan is a bridge to the future.” The head of the Sierra Club said “…Pickens is out to save America.” Pickens is taking his message directly to the people through a massive ad campaign. That, he says, will make energy a top problem to solve by the next President. Do his sentences resonate with you?
