Options Wonderland

I found out recently that there are a lot of folks building electric cars using a chasis and buying ready made electric engine components for the conversion. There's also a lot of clubs doing the same.

Not only the Tesla but there's a group who builds muscle, electric cars with 300 + horsepower. They drag race them and do 1/4 miles in a little over 12 seconds.

Just this weekend, I saw the launch of a show on Discovery called "Green Machines." They compared a brand new electric dirt bike fresh out of the lab against a Yamaha YZ250. The YZ250 beat it by very little. THIS WAS AN ELECTRIC DIRTBIKE BUILT BY A NASA SCIENTIST IN HIS OWN LAB AND TESTED FIRST THAT DAY!

The net is, I foresee a lot of scrutiny over oil prices over the next few years and it's demand decreasing exponentially starting about 5 years from now. IMO, of course. I wouldn't be surprised, considering the new probe of oil pricing, that we find out the oil industry is milking as much cash as they can knowing their product's demand will be decreasing very soon.

I hope so, anyway. Note that I love the green movement but I don't buy into the politics of it. LOL!
