I know! We'll make out hybrids fully electric! That'll show those oil companies AND save the world! Ha HAAA! Then, we can drive them to the Al Gore Coal-Fired Powerplant protests, completley oblivious to the fact that the filthiest fuel on the planet powered our "green cars" to get to the protest! We're SAVING THE WORLD!!!!! WooOOoOOoooOOOOOOOhoOoOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! -------------------- I r Ur Gawd!

How is she clueless? It's far easier to overhaul the electricity generation infrastructure than it is to overhaul millions of cars. That's not to say that electric cars are the ultimate solution, but it isn't some ridiculous proposition.

This is that inconvienient truth everybody seems to ignore

This is that inconvienient truth everybody seems to ignore I think they're looking for it, namely in areas of solar, wind, hydro, nuclear, clean coal. I don't think everybody ignores, just the ones who are not informed -------------------- I go to the maize and blue

I don't think everybody ignores, just the ones who are not informed You are not going to power 250,000,000 vehicles on wind and solar energy. Won't happen. I'd believe maybe 1/10th of the entire US vehicle fleet, were everything electric, could be powered by those sources even if the devices in use were %100 effecient. -------------------- I r Ur Gawd!

What is a better way to power these vehicles and ensure energy independence? US has enough oil for 60 million car for 60 years, that's about 14 years for 250 million cars. -------------------- I go to the maize and blue
