The Impending Dominance of the Electric Car

On May 4th I had the pleasure of attending a Washington Clean Technology Alliance (WCTA) Lunch Seminar to hear James Billmaier, author of JOLT! The Impending Dominance of the Electric Car and Why America Must Take Charge.
After listening to Jim speak, I was fully convinced that America will soon become an “electriconomy” as he puts it. The way he explained it, it will be similar to the evolution of the internet, which existed for a fair amount of time before it became easily accessible to the general public through the introduction of the internet browser. Soon electric cars will be mass produced, charging stations will be easily found, and battery life will last longer to make it not only feasible, but desirable to own an electric car as your primary vehicle.

I recently saw a 6-minute video on the ZENN car, currently being produced in Canada (although it is not legal to drive it there). ZENN stands for Zero Emissions No Noise, and I would love to have one. You're right. This is the way to go, and then we could tell the oil companies.....well, I'm sure we'd think of something!
