HOWARD Hughes has a vision of a world where there is no road noise and it only costs $1 to power your car.

And he is well on the way to making his dream a reality, with the prototype of a fully electric car he has invented expected to hit the streets in June next year.

   Interesting, as it fits in with my new Blog The Real Tragedy of Crushing the EV-1. Click on Voices, then Perspectives, and then aeroworker John Gilkison. Recent news tying into this are that 2 trillion tons of ice have melted at the poles since the year 2003. I have calculated this would take 576 quadrillion BTU's to accomplish which of course is energy taken from the air and the seas which we would not be seeing as sensible temperature rises. Carbon trading is obviously not going to work with a business as usual model. We need to drastically reduce our carbon inputs, period. Something wicked is coming this way to quote a Ray Bradbury book title.

   Seems an EV conversion would be a better solution.
