Yes! They'll be able to get a drunken -- or even asleep -- person home from the pub with no intervention! They will be run on 100% solar power, which they will harvest themselves. The major by-product will be a highly uniform organic fertilizer. But it's been done before, and will be done again, possibly sooner than 2050. It's called the "horse cart." Reminds me of another list I was on, and the technophiles were out in full force. "In the future," they said, "seawater will be desalinized by nuclear fusion, and transported thousands of kilometres by solar power, where it will be automatically applied to crops" "It's been done before," someone answered, "It's called 'rain.'" :::: Survival and prosperity both hinge on how much sunlight energy is under your control. -- Thom Hartmann :::: Jan Steinman, EcoReality Co-op :::: _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
