I know you to be wrong. Pickens' organization is involved with the JV and the funding of it.
Then I look forward to the next JV PR quoting Pickens, indicating how he is involved in the funding.
Now what would be the harm of presenting a Pickens quote about the JV, and his direct involvement in its funding?
The current vanilla thank-you to his pickensplan.org for providing online reading material is meaningless. So let's see that Pickens quote in the next JV PR. ROTFLMAO!
