Re: [DML] Fuel cost (WAS: Alternate Fuels)

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The underlying problem with transportation in America is we have no balance. Self driven automobiles, no matter how propelled, are disproportionately necessary. Outside of a few major metropolitan areas, there are no real alternatives.

If every single car on I-95 was instantaneously replaced with a Chevrolet Volt or a Nissan Leaf tomorrow morning, traffic would still be just as bad. 

Fuel is only a small part of the conundrum. Simply increasing American pump prices to global standards would probably have a bigger effect than all the alternative energy research combined.
