Wind Powered Cars

If you’re paying attention at all you’ve probably heard about T. Boone Pickins plan for replacing natural gas fueled electric generation with wind generation and using the surplus natural gas to fuel transportation. OK there wouldn’t really be wind powered cars, but you get the idea. One of the great thing about Pickens plan is that it should make sense to both the left and the right. Really the only group that loses out with his plan is foreign oil interest. Many excellent and long term American jobs would be created, trillions of American dollars would stay at home and even the environment would benefit - all feasible with mature off the shelf technology - no break through required.

Only the lunatic fringes and those with an ulterior motive should oppose this idea. I wonder why President Bush wasn’t interested?
