The Houston Chronicle has an interesting article on the potential boost being given the Pickens plan:  "After spending nearly three years and more than $80 million of his own money to tout his energy plan, T. Boone Pickens says he's finally about to have something to show for his efforts. *** The measure, called the NAT GAS Act, aims to boost use of natural gas as a fuel in the transportation sector. Lasting five years, it would provide vehicle tax credits to buyers of vehicles powered by natural gas, giving automakers greater incentive to build them."  Interesting.
