Today I went to see T. Boone Pickens do a town hall meeting at UTDallas. While I had heard some of the story it was interesting to hear it first hand. Not many 81 year olds can talk for an hour with out notes.
The thing I appreciate about Mr. Pickens is that he has gotten behind an idea, stuck with it, spend his own money and is using consensus to make something bigger than himself happen. The cynic in my says wait and see he will make money on the deal but as would rebut that he's 81. This is for the future.
I can't say whether or not I agree with his plan as I haven't looked at it closely, yet I am intrigued that he is promoting a solution that has significant impact and that he apparently would get minimal personal gain.
So my No job joy for today is new ideas and people with the courage to stand up and make sure something happens
