Dear Mr. Pickens, I know exactly what you are talking about!!! There is nothing I could tell you about solar or wind energy that you do not already know. Except one thing I have been working on. I believe a vacuum can be made that uses the sun like Archimedes and with a few modern designs this one system/building in accordance with my design would be operational 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Not only will it supply energy to 10,000 homes (from what I can figure) but water and a green house environment with vegetation as well. I heard on CNBC that you have some of the turbines already for the wind farm. I know it is not the wind farm we so badly need; but it would be environmentally friendly, and once it is built the only charge is the up keep of the building. I hope we can talk in the future.
