Surely you jest.

About the only application that isn't up for grabs right now is
airplanes.

After that, it just requires some hard work to develop alternate
energy sources.

Natural gas as a bridge fuel offers a lot of opportunities.

No, not joking about this, Lew.

Look around. How much support is there for alternate automotive fuels?

Infrastructure cost. And no one is going to invest the big bucks it
takes to get an alternative fuel into use - until there are cars and
trucks that use it.


Alternative Fuels = Alternative Problems. The foot print of hazardous
"things" from inception to the grave yard for a Toyota Prius vs. a
Hummer, is greater. And naturally the cost is greater.
