Even a nasty recession (depression?) has its silver lining; and the opportunity to grab PICO for $21/sh was my pick for making the best of a bad situation. I truly believe that the coming "water crisis" will make recent concerns over fossil fuels seem almost laughable. Water may be the most abundant resource on earth, but it is also the most in demand. And unlike, say gold, a million gallongs of water can be ruined by one clown with a bottle of concentrated pesticide or other bad stuff.

I can't guarantee that PICO is the correct way to play the coming water 'crisis' but buying a company that actually owns water, and land with water rights seems like a potentially great investment. Time will tell.]]>

So, no matter how much the 'synergy' of wind turbines and advanced transmission cable almost writes the 'perfect story' - this is no sure thing. But I'm not selling anytime soon.]]> Mon, 26 May 2008 20:16:10 -0400 In the turbine biz, theyare up against everyone from the better known companies like Gamesa and Vestas to the mega-corps liike GE and BP. and in the cable biz, 3M is a direct competitor with almost unlimited resources.
