If you have read my blog at all, you know that I like writing about T. Boone Pickens. Being from Oklahoma, I am a bit of a T. Boone Pickens groupie, one could say. He is the epitomy of a chameleon in the oil industry. He has adapted to the times of the industry, especially in the last year with his wind energy campaign. I saw the comic below today and I just had to include it in a blog: While many in the oil industry would speculate that Mr. Pickens has "sold out" to wind, I question if he would have it any other way. According to his autobiography, "The First Billion Is The Hardest," Pickens does everything whole-hearted. I have a feeling that if he has seen this comic, he's had a good chuckle over being called a "nut job." For other this comic and other comics related to the energy industry, visit the National Association of Shell Marketers' site. Lindsay Goodier, Online Editor, OilandGasInvestor.com
