John, I'm well aware that the NG has to be compressed. I've seen many CNG fueling stations in Europe in close proximity to liquid fuel pumps and the CNG pumps really don't take up any more room than the gas/diesel pumps.

The number of NG-fueled vehicles in the REST of the world is growing at an exponential rate, from approx 1 million in 2000 to above 12 million now.

All of these countries, many considered far less "advanced" than the US, have found ways to fuel these vehicles but we can't do it?

The US has done nothing in NG transportation over the last ten years, even though we have discovered a cornucopia of new DOMESTIC NG supply during that same decade.

Re NG fueled cars. Is anybody on this board familiar with Utah? I have read several times all the Honda NG cars wind up there because the local NG utility had NG fueling stations all over the state for company use years ago. These stations were way underused and now fuel hundreds of cars every day. Is there any truth to this?
