Electric Cars
Here is a quote:
“THE fundamental reasons why the electric car has not attained the popularity it deserves are (1) The failure of the manufacturers to properly educate the general public regarding the wonderful utility of the electric; (2) The failure of [power companies] to make it easy to own and operate the electric by an adequate distribution of charging and boosting stations. The early electrics of limited speed, range and utility produced popular impressions which still exist.”
Guess when that quote was made? Originally in 1916. Here is the link. I guess some things change, and some things don't.

WOW! Things really haven't changed!!!!! Oh, FAIL. And it's really true too; which is why I didn't get a hybrid car for my though they are more affordable nowadays (no place to charge them at school!). Bah!
And I like their idea of digitalizing books, just in case!
Interesting quote. Way ahead the time...
I have visited lots of the blogs but this blog is truthfully wonderful.
