[Old Rocks]

Material science is bringing us ever more efficient and beneficial substances with which to create and use energy.

We're getting zillions of hopeful signs from science, from energy to health care to space.

KEEP GOING!

Lol....been hearing for 10 years about how awesome batteries were going to be!. They still blow....so I call bs.

Call me an ignorant cynic!

No boy, just ignorant. Most of my power tools are battery driven now. Much easier to use in tight places. And as the cost of the batteries come down, EV's will take over the market.

Lofty ideals dont mean anything to most. There is zero hard evidence EV'S will ever be popular....they have been pathetically unpopular to date.

They do? Okay, you're ignorant. [Dear Mods, he asked] That makes the cynic part irrelevant.

If they hadn't improved, why weren't we building Teslas with lead acid batteries in 1960?
