The pessimistic optimist

T. Boone Pickens on Yahoo and the Price of Oil

I like you thinking Alamo. I am in that camp also. get us off foriegn dependence. I also fear the Saudis will increase pricing. They are going to get some more. I don't think we can do it fast enough. We are behind the eight ball and need to build our energy infrastructure out quick as possible. We have to get that shovel in the dirt. Much more than we have now. It will take time. It is our destiny to wean off foreign oil. It is here all resources exist and the technology to achieve is also right here on our soil. The world knows it. Boone will put up big dollars and that is the start. I am in full bore.

Slow Start for Lithium-ion Hybrids

this will take patience and flavored by probability. If you are patient enough it probably will happen.. eventually. NiMH will run its course then we most likely will ramp up on Lithium. SQM was sold off and the eye is not so keen on this oversold liviathon.
