Rob:  Well, no one has been a bigger proponent of wind energy than one Oklahoma oilman.  Billionaire Boone Pickens may have made his fortune in the oil patch, but believes our energy future lies with alternative energy, which is why he wants to invest billions in wind farms that stretch across the plains.  
Boone Pickens:  What you do is, it will be a component in a grid.  And there’ll be a component for wind, for solar; and, you’ll use natural gas to peak it off.
Rob:  Next week we visit with Boone Pickens about our nation’s energy policy, and why he believes any federal infrastructure investment needs to start there.
Boone Pickens:  And let me tell you, you can solve the economy problem, the economic problem in America, by solving your energy problem.  They’ll go hand-in-hand.
Rob:  T. Boone Pickens, next week on Oklahoma HORIZON.
