The reality is, though, the electric type cars, etc. all require you to create energy somewhere.. I'm laughing a bit at places like Montana where you've got a Governor asking to open up strip mining for more "coal based solutions".
Everyone is so terrified of Nuclear Power, which numerous other places in the world use to great success, that they are willing to do almost anything else with other permanent damage because they find it much easier to "sell".

IMO large vehicles keep gas prices lower, big oil is not going to live with lower profits which is what would happen if all cars got 50mph, they would raise the rates to keep profits the same, we would get 50 mph but would still cost us the same each year to operate. >:-} fp At 06:17 PM 3/2/2006, Greg Sevart Poked the stick with: >I'd prefer an electric vehicle. When they finally figure out that the real solution is all-electric with nuclear, wind, solar, and hydrothermal power sources, and put a decent sized motor in a car with a Li-Ion battery that uses the nanotech Panasonic invented, and can do so without being $80,000, I'm there. Until then, I'm going to buy vehicles with big fat V8's. > >Greg -- Tallyho ! ]:8) Taglines below ! -- Think much, speak little, and write less.
