    Here's the main problem most people don't think of when it comes to alternative-fuel cars.

    Fuel companies don't WANT you to stop buying gasoline at their current outrageous prices. You WILL NOT see fueling stations every 1-2 city blocks like you do now that contain the fuel necessary to power a hydrogen powered car, ect.

    And no James, you kinda blew what I said out of proportion a bit, but I really do feel that the earth can and will fix it's self and it may be by some sort of event that would wipe out most of humanity as a side effect.


    There's also scientific evidence (backed by fuel companies and FOX news I'm sure) that states that fossil fuels are actually unending, and that it's a chemical process that takes place deep in the earth's core that pushes crude oil nearer to the surface making it havestable by us.

    I hadn't laughed properly yet today. Thanks.

    Re. fuel and car companies not wanting people to drive alternative cars - they'll go where the money is. Increasingly, they're not that pleased with petrol - the market in it is unstable, and they're not stupid; they pay scientists etc ludicrous amounts to find oil, see how much there is left, and so on, so they can get an accurate picture of when their oily cash cow is going to roll over and die.

    Noticed the recent surge in advertising for hybrid cars? I don't know about America, but they're getting a lot of attention here. As for how many people actually drive them, I don't know.

    I get the feeling that the companies will start to change trends soon. They can afford to be slow about it - they've got enough cars stockpiled, and enough oil to do them in the meantime. They'll always go where the money's going, though.

    They're only a part of oil, really, anyway. The main thing that creeps me out about the oil running out is the thousands of materials and machinery that we won't be able to make/use anymore. I remember learning that plastic is made from oil in Chemistry years ago and freaking out about it, and nobody's really given me a reason to be calm yet.

    The oil companies can only go so far. Truckers are starting to complain about prices, and are talking about blocking gas stations like they did in the good old days.

    I hate FOX News. They are hurting America. From calling Republican child molesters Democrats, to accusing Obama of being Muslim, to this, they need to go.

    I agree, but that's another debate/discussion for another time.

    I just wanted to point out that my previous post is not my actual views. I view it as bullshit.

    Chevy is the only company that's been pushing alternative fuel cars here, but it's not all over the airwaves. the US government gives a tax break to those who own hybrids, however.
