T.Boone hits the Daily Show

Friday, January 28th, 2011

In our October 2010 Futures we had an indepth interview with T. Boone Pickens about his energy vision for the United States.

Sadly, that didn’t happen. But Pickens did discuss his plan, which means after the measure fell short last fall, it could be taken up again by Congress.
