T. Boone Pickens: Wind Can Wait

"I'm the only person in the United States that has a plan," the Texas oil billionaire said on his TV commercials.  Well, plans change.  Now that prices for oil and natural gas have dropped — oil is at a 20-month low — wind can wait, Pickens said yesterday at a meeting of utility and investment officials.

"Let's see", says Mr. Pickens.  "I'm a patriot, in favor of wind power to get America energy independent.  I'm not in it for the money."  

But, oil prices have come down. Wind can wait?  Odd.  Inconsistent.  Maybe, we don't need to be energy independent, Mr Boone.  

What is your angle anyway?
