Agreed on natural gas - Eastern Europe and Lat America have quite a lot of nat gas powered cars. Like the article says, the problem in USA is the chicken-and-egg situation with infrastructure and car availability. A lot of Eastern European and Lat American cars are actually used-car post-factory remodels to use nat gas, which would not be allowed in a country like USA (safety and quality issues). Infrastructure varies, but in some places people go 10 miles out of their routes to fill up. But then the savings are worth it perhaps. :)

But then with all the gas-guzzling in USA, there are still much simpler ways to save and conserve. Much harder in Europe where most cars are already small and efficient.

Sinoenergy, which I mentioned in the previous post, changed their symbol to SINE.OB. This morning they announced that they are raising guidance for the past quarter.

Below is an excerpt.

Sinoenergy's guidance called for third quarter of fiscal year 2008, ended June 30, net revenues to be from $8 to $9 million and net income to be from $2.8 to $3.2 million. The Company confirmed that its net revenue and net income for the third quarter of fiscal year 2008 will at least be $10 million and $3.3 million respectively. Reaffirmation of its guidance means year-on- year net revenue grew at least 61.8 % and net income grew at least 69.2% compared to the corresponding quarter in 2007.
