      Ford: Ripe for the (Bottom) Picking?
      I dumped my F & GM a couple of years ago. Their products are OK but it is their own fault for not promoting fuel efficiency and for their pathetic marketing emphasis on speed and power.
      Layers of management afraid to make bold decisions for fear of losing their jobs and union demands have killed the industry. It's over for now. I just don't see us ever regaining the crown because there are many hungry countries out there with capable work forces and low manufacturing costs. I own TM but I am not so sure they won't have problems five or ten years down the line.

      Beacon Power: My Top Stock Pick for 2008
      I believe Beacon has adequate patent protection so that they will have to be bought out at a premium. Time will tell. It always does!

      Beacon Power: My Top Stock Pick for 2008
      Beacon's flywheels have virtually no carbon footprint. The utilities and the government likes this. Battery systems have a large carbon footprint and limited life cycle. Grid management is essential as fossil fuel plants now have to constantly be fired up to maintain power requirements and avoid uneven distribution. This is not only expensive but wasteful and time consuming. Flywheels engage in seconds. I have seen Beacon's plant and was impressed with it and the folks running the company. There are no guarantees that some other tech will knock them out of the box but I am betting on them to succeed. If what they propose works then they will make plenty of money as they will own the systems and have a constant revenue stream from each installation.

      Axion Power: Common Sense Solution for Alt. Energy Storage
      I like all this info. If EEstor's product works as it is supposed to then they will certainly win the automotive market. I have heard that flywheels are in use on trains in the far east but as far as I am concerned the no carbon footprint feature of flywheels makes them best for grid regulation.

      I like the way you think. Would you care to comment on BCON vs. AXPW.OB for grid applications?
      Also do you have any thoughts about the future of Zenn and EEstor? Thanks!

      Battery Technology: A Different Set of Rules
      I am sticking with flywheel tech. I have visited BCON's factory and listened to them. This whole field is yet to be realized but I just have this hunch that BCON will make it. We will know in the next two years.

      Grid-based Energy Storage: Birth of a Giant
      Having been at the BCON stockholders meeting last week and listened to management and toured the plant I have put my money there. I think they will be the winner in the minutes category.

      U.S. Bank Dividend Yields Revisited
      I have had a large investment in BAC for many years and recently bought more. I re invest all my dividends and the compounding is considerable. I figure if BAC goes to Hell then the whole country is doomed. I am in for life.

      Time to Buy Copper....Again?
      Will not copper use expand so much in the developing world that it will be in short supply for the next 20 years. Don't hybrid cars require copper wound electric motors?
