Who Killed the Electric Car

Most folks have prolly heard of this, it wasn't until a few months ago that i finally got around to watching it - i'd say make it an effort to check out.

A very interesting documentary on electric cars, and how they've been developed, and essentially successful, but the industries have stopped production, and failed to move forward at all.. There doesn't seem to be a conclusive answer why as well.

I feel it's really short-sighted of these companies -- we're going to run out of petrol, and the sun gives us a virtually unlimited amount of energy..so let's convert that to the 'fuel' we need for cars, and just about everything else.... My guess is oil co's have shut down all-electric cars (there are at least some plug-in hybrids on the way..)

Anyway, it's pretty despicable what some of the big auto companies have done. Check it out, i gvve it an 8.5.
