That is exactly the problem. A government that
provides no leadership, just reacts.

The problem is
that we will do absoultely nothing until the last drop of
gas
is burned in a
combustion engine and everything grinds to a halt.
Only
then will a US
President get the bright idea of starting an alternative
energy

In todays world,

This thread has reached the absurd
limit of imagination.
I'm in the oil business and have been
since 1955.
Many years ago (remember the oil crisis
and the lines at
the service stations) our concept of
what was needed for
transportation changed and to my mind
for the better.
Today, we are using vehicle on the
highways and streets
to transport ourselves and our kids
that can in no way
be considered reasonable.
Fuel cells WILL some day become the
energy source for our
transportation but it will not be in
our current menagerie
of SUV's and Kickup
trucks.
Regardless of what we do to encourage
the exploration of
energy sources in this country WE
CANNOT FROM THOSE SOURCES
USING OUR PRESENT FORM OF
TRANSPORTATION COME ANYWHERE CLOSE
TO MEETING THE STUPID NEEDS OF WHAT OUR
AFFLUENT CITIZENS
FEEL IS NECESSARY FOR SIMPLE
TRANSPORTATION.
FACT: Until someone comes up with
a cheaper source of
energy than oil we will be stuck with
doing whatever is
necessary to maintain our need for
such.
Granted I am nearly as big an offender
as the rest of us.
My wife drives a 1990 Buick with a 3.8
liter engine that
gets <FONT face="Courier New"
size=2>about 18 mpg in the city and I'm more stupid in that
I <FONT face="Courier New"
size=2>drive a 1995 Cadillac STS with an engine that is big
enough to propel a locomotive and
only gets 9.8 mpg in
the <FONT face="Courier New"
size=2>city (almost 30 on trips but how often do I do that).
Energy for transportation goes far in
that our
infrastructure for the supply of this
is oil based and
to change that if difficult and will
require time.
If we simply cut the size of vehicles
(non commercial) to
the point where they supplied needed
transport and not
the weaponry for highway warfare they
do now we could
ALMOST rid ourselves of outside
dependency.
