Default Re: Compressed Air Car

Question to ponder.

Right now we all get our transportaion energy from oil. When the supplier of that energy, once cheap, has no competition they can ask any price and we have to pay it.

So what happens to cheap electricity once we all have to plug in our cars at night?

How much will problems of burning coal or nuclear power plant wastes be improved when we remove the energy source from the vehicle to the huge evil electricity corporations that control the power coming into our houses?
Will we not still F*ck up the planet?

Finally, if we could use a technology, such as compressed air, to solve all the problems of pollution, global warming et al, how long until we can switch and why do we have to get our wallets raped in the meantime?

BTW Ftroop is correct. When the NTSB is done, we wouldn't be able to buy that car anyway.
