"Oil billionaire Pickens puts his money on wind power" ...

Read the full story from CNN.com.

It should also be noted that Pickens' companies have been investing heavily in wind energy and natural gas as a transportation fuel so he does have something to gain here, but it is telling that he appears to be a "reformed" oilman. Last year on a trip to China he was quoted as saying something to the effect that if the Olympic 100m dash was run on that day it would have been a relay race because no one could have run 100m in polluted air of that poor quality.

It's certainly an ambitious plan that should raise a lot of eyebrows across the country and world, not to mention Garrett County.
