While T Boone's plan to develop alternative and green energy is welcome and needed, I don't think he is entirely altruistic in this endevour. He has invested over $40 million of his own money just in advertising alone to promote the Pickens Plan. Basically, if he can convince us to use natural gas for fueling vehichles, natural gas has another and more profitable use. I would supspect, ole T Boone, being the shrewd old fox that he is, has a back pocket full of gas leases, wells and prospects in his back pocket, just waiting for the market for natural gas and compressed natural gas to fully develope. Nothing wrong with mind you, just the rest of the story, of course, IMHO.
