Plug-in hybrids will probably be the best compromise once they get a
bit better, and for a while after that until electrical storage
technologies get good enough that electrical vehicles become practical
for everyone.

The real question with most of these technologies is: Do we want to
develop them, or do we want to wait and buy them from the Chinese? I
vote for investing in these types of things now so that we will own
the technology.


Electrics may get us by for a few years, but I think there will be new
technology in 5 to 10 years to replace that and the IC engine as we
know it. Fuel cells? Hydrogen? Nukes?


Antimatter, a dime sized piece would last for the life of the vehicle. ^_^
