Did you watch top gear with those new electric cars? the Teslar? One gear and it revs to 14,000 RPM and it goes around the top gear track faster than a Porsche GT3. - battery life is a bit of a issue and recharge time is too, but there is rumored to be a huge revolution in battery charging technology that means you could charge something like your cell phone in under 1 minute. I won't go into it cause its far to geeky.

The other electric car was a Hydrogen Fuel cell made by Honda. It has a reasonable power output and pretty good distances it can go. And the price of hydrogen is about the same as petrol. And the only by product of driving - water.

No worse than replacing pistons and rings and paying what the fuck Arabs want to charge for oil......

Cheese is going to china to look for a swag of cheap rechargeable AA ni-cads. Open these up and pour them into his gas tank, with a couple of well placed probes he can be sitting on top of a pretty big charge.

Yeh could just imagine that going up over a nice table top or a double. You going to ride with a long stick with a bone dangling from it. Other problem would be you couldnt roost any one.

You lot are a pack of weirdos.
