Hey Army!



We've had some big news in the past few weeks and I wanted to share some of the biggest news with you today. American Electric Power Company, one of the major suppliers of electric energy in the United States, has signed on to the Pickens Plan to help us push for a 21st Century transmission grid.

AEP operates in 11 states and owns the nation's largest electricity transmission system -- so they are a key part of realizing our vision for wind. To bring more renewable energy to market, we must have transmission.

The Chairman, President and CEO of American Electric Power is a good friend and a very smart guy named Mike Morris. I want to introduce him to you because he gets it. And, because AEP has over 5 million customers, they get it, too.


Mike, say a few words to the 1.4 million members of the New Energy Army.


Thank you Boone. At American Electric Power we support a more diversified and domestic-based energy supply mix, increased energy efficiency and greater investment in new energy technologies. Energy will play a central role in our economic recovery and support for modernizing our electric system is stronger than ever. We know that as alternative energy sources continue to come to be harnessed, we will need a smarter, modern and more efficient transmission system that can move that energy from where it is being produced, often in remote locations, to where it is needed at any given time. Imagine meeting the high demand for electricity on a hot summer day in New York with power that includes wind from Kansas and a few hours later shifting that power to meet the same needs in southern California. We can't do that today. We will only be able to do this if we modernize our transmission grid.


We want to be able to continue to deliver electric power where it is needed, when it is needed as efficiently and cleanly as possible. This is not only good business, for AEP, but it is good for America as we all work together to rebuild our economy. Boone?


Thank you, Mike. The Pickens Plan is much stronger for having partners like AEP. The Army is marching forward along a broader front because AEP is on board.

Robert - You might find something helpful here, and the data in the link I posted several spots below. As per your question whether anyone can prove the earth is getting warmer, can you dsprove it? I'd sincerely like to take a look at any reliable info you have. Here, I'll even share mine ...

I think Obama and his cabinet are causing air pollution, every time I turm around their blowing smoke out of their ###.
Dorcheated is alive and well!
Here's a fan to help clear some of that smoke. Ever think of just not turning around? You're making yourself dizzy. :0)

best - sesport LOL
Robert - Let's see, I posted 50 mins. ago, you posted 33 mins. after that. Did you really go through alllll that material in 17 minutes? Also, I believe that documentation goes back to ... what ... 2003? That was about ... ohhhhh ... the time Bush was running for re-election? So the bulk of those documents are from the Bush admin. ... Not sure, is that what you're referring to as bs & crazy?

Thanks for clarifying - sesport :0)
Tell me what's out to lunch, you or your brain.
LOL, nice crack anyway, the joke that is.
Robert --
hate to tell you .... but one of the symptoms of climate change is wider swings in annual weather -- some years hotter, other colder, more rain, less rain. A trend line based on the past two or three years is statistically invalid. The increasingly wider swings (instability) in the annual weather patterns is exactly what you would expect with a complex system under going basic changes. i.e. Increases in atmospheric co2, methane, and other gases. These gases cause temperature increases by preventing the transmission of heat to space at night. The heat is retained in the atmosphere instead of radiating to space.
I suggest you don't buy any ocean front property for a retirement home.
I certainly do find it interesting that before this cold winter the people pushing the global warming hoax, excuse me, climate change boondoggle, made a really big deal out of how warm our winters had become and now that we've had a cold one, why that's caused by our actions too.

This is why I've never found it to be productive to argue with liberals. About the time you have them cornered on the facts, they change the rules. Kinda like arguing with your wife.

At least my wife doesn't imply that I'm a Nazi when I don't agree with her....:-)
Robert, are you trying to buy an oil, gas and mineral lease or royalty?
wrong website dude.
Actually, the tide is turning on the consensus argument. Its is instructive that the environmental extremists who are pushing this theory of man made global warming call the scientists who don't agree with their orthodoxy as cranks.

How typical of the left to put a pejorative label those who do not agree with them.
crystal meth kills.

The Lithium Connection to Shale Drilling

Shale drilling and lithium extraction are seemingly distinct activities, but there is a growing connection between the two as the world moves towards cleaner energy solutions. While shale drilling primarily targets…
