I get hints of Oil Man finding Wind Power and discovering that other's haven't the money/connections/desire to move into the field, and Pickens isn't a fool. Every other commercial on TV is green this-n-that, the overall anger at Oil corporations makes this a big-time money making opportunity.

The end result could be worth not caring, but since we've seen how Big Oil operated, it would be foolish to carte blanche his motivations and as such we should watch the whole process very carefully with a jaundiced eye. IMHO of course.
