Glad to hear the real(?) expert's talk about "alternate fuels". Unfortunately there is no known alternative to oil except coal and the development work to make energy from coal in a nonpolluting way has not yet been done. Estimated cost: ten billion US dollars. Reason why it hasn't been done: it's not patentable, the basic ideas are all old. So it must be done by a nonprofit organization such as a government.
