Texas spent close to $6 billion on wind power.... we WILL almost certainly have blackouts this summer. For half as much we could have had reliable steady (& CLEAN) power from natural gas fired plants.

The 6 billion was for wires to get the wind generation to the load.

T Bone Pickens is not going to build the wind farms he said he was going to build.

Another empty T Bone promise. Ask anyone you has to pay to go to OSU.
