too lazy to google the project's wiki page or website, too, i see...


want me to call you up and read it to ya, too?

Nah-my phone is on the other side of the room.


And if we whine and do nothing, you typically google it for us.



Also, I still think electric cars are a piss poor solution.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

The person writing the article should focus on the facts. Forget about the fluff and tell us what the deal is.

Ideal? I don't have one, cuurently, IMO Hydrogen burning internal combustion engine is most feasible.

well, i read the wiki. don't have the inclination to read the ten page article right now, so all apologies if it's answered in that.

but...

who's paying for the recharges? is the electricity going to be tax funded? do you swipe the 'ol magic-money card at the "pump?" or has electricity suddenly become free?

*thinks it's a neat enough idea, but has "concerns" *

let me get this straight mr. agassi...  you're going to turn the world onto electric cars, backed by the political and financial muscle of israel and denmark?  really?

yes, i'm a skeptic...

wouldn't providing the clean electricity be a bit of a flaw in that logic?

although you do have some validity in that point as major metros have a large population of people who travel short distances where a smaller electric vehicle would be feasible

If only there were some way to ferry multiple people around at once......possibly underground using electrical means.

I'd agree...

as soon as we start producing electricity by means other than oil.
