Some interesting comments from T. Boone Pickens on the Keystone XL decision:
Quote:

"You can't delay the pipeline. Get serious. I'm not kidding you...The United States is silly enough to think Canada is a
part of the United States because they are both in North America and so they treat the Canadians like step children. The
Canadians are going to sell their oil and we are sitting here, with a wonderful relationship - could have - with Canada and what's
gonna happen? Obama is going to put this thing off, and they’re going to permit a pipeline and that oil is headed for China and
we’re fools. That's the way it's going to come out. Historically, when they go back and look at us we'll be the dumbest people
that ever came to town...How many pipelines do you think cross Nebraska? I think it's over 50 and nobody has said anything up
until now. That Ogallala Aquifer extends from midland Texas to South Dakota across eight states. Now can you imagine how
many pipelines cross that Aquifer? Hundreds...Remember, I use to be a Canadian."
