Well, here's something that everyone is an expert on..............time to put up the dough and make a fortune! Time to stop being envious of the "big, rich oil guys"......take some risk, it's the only way you'll ever stand a chance of making it big.

    That being said, that company says they have no idea when they'll be going to market with this car. Not sure why that is, but they know the viablility of their product better than me. What I'm talking about is all the people in this country who seem to be banking on some unspecific miracle, be it solar, wind, bio, or whatever, none of it is ready for prime time. To remain competitive in the world market we need cost competitive energy. The rest of the world is drilling, drilling, drilling, or making long term deals. Other countries are building electricity plants by the dozens, including nukes. Only this country ties it's own hands on energy production.
    I took a risk in 1986 I was trying too secure my retirement so it would be better then it is today I watched $100,000 grand go real quick, you all know what happened in 1987 the way my investments went in mutual funds turned out too be junk bonds. If only I had invested in oil companies I would have too believe that the price of gas would not be where it is today. My luck with investing was like if I got in everyone else was getting out. Buy high sell low that’s been my luck was so I just wish that I had invested in oil so the price would have been low today. I would tell people too go too Vegas and bet against me and we could split the winnings.

    I’m not envious of anyone; I had my share of what this Country has too offer. I did better putting money in Corvettes, and tri five Chevy’s then the market, I found out a long time ago for every winner in the market, there are several looser’s.

    I’m just saying it would be worth a chance too try, not too think it would take the place of oil.
