T. Boone Pickens will appear with MSNBC’s Dylan Ratigan at a town hall event at Oklahoma State University on Thursday, March 31 to discuss the effects of the Middle East/North Africa unrest and the Japanese nuclear accident on U.S. energy policy.

Pickens will be joined by

— James Woolsey – former Director of the Central Intelligence Agency

— Bob Deans – Natural Resources Defense Council

— Ashwin Madia – VoteVets.org

The town hall is part of a three-day “Steel on Wheels” series that Ratigan is conducting in Oklahoma. The purpose, according to an MSNBC new release is to:

Bring in people from politics, the oil and gas industries, to the people of the Green and Nuclear movements to come up with a plan that frees America from the Mid-East oil vice.”

The town hall will be steamed live on Dylan Ratigan’s website beginning at 8 PM Eastern.
