[Vwdiesel] Diesel vs. hybrid battle heats up

[James Hansen]

Yes, I think I should, and park it on the front lawn of the EPA office 
in D.C. as a shining if not somewhat sooty example of clean green 
electric power.
Reminds me of Rutan's rocket; I still shake my head over it being fueled 
with rubber and NOX. Brilliant.  Just brilliant.
Start saving your tires for that- now there's a good uplifting way to 
recycle rubber.
