Yes, all of those are do able but we need to really focus on them now. Japan and other countries continue to be way ahead of us on alternative fuels. They know what its like to be short. Ford should not have to buy its hybrid engines from Toyota.

First off, the toyota hydrids, aren't alternative fuel cars, they are alternative power supply. They all use gas, just more efficiently. They are cars which specialize in conservation of energy, and efficiency of energy. Secondly, if you read my article on uranium, from seawater, Japan leads the world in that research. While not cost effective now, it will be, and unless the US gets going, we will let Japan have the lead in the next big thing.


You're right the Prius does not have an alternative fuel source but rather uses existing fuels more efficiently with less pollution.
