 | Alternative energy sources are ready already. Lithium Sulphur
batteries capable of allowing electric cars to go 300 miles per charge
are just around the corner. Fuel/cells are real, in fact the first
fuel cell cars are hitting the market this year and hydrogen fueling
stations are starting to be built. At this point it's just a matter of
having the will to implement the rapidly developing alternative energy
option. Alt.energy's time has come.
Of course if so many Americans weren't PROGRAMMED to believe we
actually have to fight wars in the Mid East for oil and that alt.energy
is still a pipe dream, then alt.energy would be much further along at
the moment. The DEPROGRAMMING will start shortly and we will be freed
of the looming oil crises. Why? Because the price of oil will force
people to seek alternatives.

and where would the electric companies get their power to produce
electricity for these lithium batteries that run electric cars??...the
sources are usually oil or atomic power....and can batteries power
jumbo jets?....trucks? apartment houses? factories?....oil is
expensive and is likely to become more so as it becomes less
available.....atomic power produces atomic waste which stays with us
for some time...windmills are limited and take up a great deal of
space which is limited in many areas of the u.s. or europe for that
matter.....coal requires storage and is a pollutant...best known way
so far is conservation until our technology find a way to successfully
replace oil...... and conservation will become more difficult with
time as 3rd world countries compete for the oil pie.....there is no
freedom from the rise in oil prices.....and no easy fix from
alternative energy...electric cars are the cars of the future and of
now.....as are many other products that can be found, such as lower
wattage electric bulbs....heat pumps, solar.......but together they
represent a drop in the bucket....
the hype is on for alternative energies and has been so for
decades....but it is a dream to think it will replace oil anytime in
the foreseeable future or when oil is slated to run
out......conservation will extend our time somewhat.....don't drive an
suv, lower your thermostat in winter, raise it in summer or replace
with a fan....don't take wasteful trips...consume less....and just
maybe.................oh yes hydrogen power.......hopefully long term
most of the problems will be resolved....in the meanwhile, storage and
expense are a major problem.....
