The "Gasoline Crisis" occurred during the 1970's. Thirty years is a long time to still be dependent on a finite commodity -- oil (dead dinosaurs) -- to fuel our vehicles. Short of using it until completely gone, what will cause us to diversify? Abundant and cheap gasoline seems to reward this bad behavior.
Q: What do PG&E, Toyota, and Google have in common?
A: V2G (vehicle-to-grid) technology research, and more -- not cheap gasoline.

Consumers could expect reasonable operating costs -- from vehicle manufacturers. Wish not for cheap gasoline, but small and large vehicles that will operate cheaply

- "...draws with pencils -- not quickly." Writing under the obliquely oxymoronic moniker QwkDrw, I fancy this blog an internet-based “column”; articles often beginning with a descriptive photo. The posts, sometimes written in series, are easily further researched by readers with links to sources, photos, video clips, and additional information. This blog is not represented as authoritative and complete -- it is a sort of brief synopsis or abridged digest version of larger matters condensed from one perhaps inexpert perspective into a reasonable amount of reading time. The topics here might be interesting to someone also of my background and may or may not be more widely appealing. 2014 Blog Award: 10 Hot Readers and their Blogs. "#4.
