John, Thankyou again! My reference to G.B. Shaw relates to his play " Back to Methusaleh" (1921) and, the Serpent's comments to Eve. RFK's paraphrasing of Shaw was in a 1966 speech, immortalized by Teddy Kennedy in his eulogy to his slain brother. Shaw would scarcely be remembered, I'm sure, were it not for RFK's tragic loss and, as well, Teddy's very poignant eulogy.

John, Another very interesting article, thanks! I'm curious to know; have you followed the development of the Aptera 2e auotomobile or, Nanosolar (both privately held companies, both California based)? Aptera has been quite guarded about the type(s) of battery employed in their vehicle (ostensibly due to concerns regarding their business model, costs, etc,) but, it appears that they are working toward 2 models:1) all electric & 2) a hybrid. Their stated goal is 100,000 vehicles on the road by 2015. Nanosolar is producing a photovoltaic thin film, based upon their propietary "ink" & high speed printing process. Said to be lowest in cost & highly efficient, they are currently operating plants in California & Germany. While a bit far afield from storage media proper, I'm sure you would agree that these types of application are of importance. Thanks again for your articles! One last note, the quote so often attributed to Robert F. Kennedy is from George Bernard Shaw. Kennedy was one who often read & quoted a number of poets but, he also gave G.B. Shaw credit on this one!
