Eco-Energy Dreamers

I wish I had an imagination as vivid as this man’s. I started reading the article, The Battery Powered Car, and I can’t figure out if it is a joke or not. The article starts like it is an informative article, but somewhere along the way the author becomes detached from reality. He writes:

The advanced electric car can be built using advanced technology and materials – a lightweight ultra-strong frame, aerodynamic exoskeleton, in-wheel motors with independent 360 degree wheel rotation in all four wheels, driver control by wire, autopilot, lithium ion batteries, photovoltaic sides and windows, the works.

True, and dilithium crystals could be our next great source of energy. Read the rest of the article, especially the last few paragraphs. And don’t forget to check out the diagrams.

I can’t resist pointing out–this guy wants to create “The 100% Electric Car” but he wants to include a 10 horsepower electric generator in the car to recharge the batteries while he’s driving. Huh? I would love to see this vehicle on the road, but sadly I never will.
