There is no good alternative to oil for transportation that we have

One good alternative is LNG/CNG.



That's a good one after one of your excuses for blocking the
Keystone pipeline was over CO2. Which of course is totally
bogus because that Canadian oil is going to be developed and
burned somewhere, be it here or China.


*It's just missing infrastructure,


Better take that up with NJ transit. They were using it in some of
their busses and gave it up for reasons that had nothing to do
with infrastructure.


something that has existed in Europe at least since the 70's.


Not many vehicles on the roads there using it either.



*Another good
(but expensive) alternative is hybrids such as the Prius, or Explorer
(taxis in NY City). *If NY taxi drivers really had problems with them they
would have said so, and I have asked.

CBS News, not exactly a conservative organization, ran a story
about a week ago showing how it takes 17 years of average
driving to make a hybrid pay off and what a joke they are.
