T. Boone Pickens' Epic Wind Fail

Investors in energy are being overwhelmed by the trees, while few "analysts" are talking about the forest.

The issue is not about a more narrow focus on some obscure aspect of wind power.

The issues are:
1. The White House, let alone Pickens, does not have a viable energy plan. It does not appreciate nuclear's excellent record for three decades and is still buying into the PR stunt entitled "clean coal".

2. Finally, the White House and most potential investors are not grasping the dirty little secret that wind, solar and all alternative energy sources combined cannot deliver more than 15-20% of America's energy needs--even by the end of this century.

Bottom-Line: We need to get out of "trees" like this article and begin to understand the "forest."
