Investing in these companies would be a gamble — but it might be a gamble that pays off.
Tesla stock has been up lately!
Sounds like a great idea! Build a 10 million square foot facility before you have even done a test run. What could possibly go wrong? Sounds like something the government would do. The rollout should be smooth as . . . well, obamacare.
About the part of charging electric cars in minutes, I remember hearing of this back in the 1970’s. I remember such a claim being made in an old “Elementary Electronics” magazine section called “Ask Hank, He Knows,” circa 1979, where someone wrote in where the is an electric car that can go 300? miles on a charge and it can be recharged in a few minutes. Hank replied where if this is the case, the wiring must be huge to handle all the amps you need for the current plus to charge a battery that fast, it would cause it to overheat and even glow. I’m sure we’ve had many tech advances since the 1970’s but the laws of physics are the same. I have to call “shenanigans” on this one.
When nuke plants were first envisioned it was said the electricity would be too cheap to meter.
An awful lot of people seem to know about this “secret” project.

Economic War Brewing Among 5 States
By MONEY MORNING STAFF REPORTS
Until now, "Operation BlueStar" has been kept hidden from the public by members of Congress, governors of five states, and major silicon heavyweights.
But by 2015 it will impact 98% of the U.S. population.
Forbes describes the end game of what's been put in motion as "world-changing," with initial estimates projecting a $737 billion disruption to the U.S. economy.
Yet, few Americans have any idea what Operation BlueStar is, or how this secret technology project will transform America.
That's why 34-year Silicon Valley insider Michael Robinson performed his own investigation into it.
What he's unearthed are five shocking facts about Operation BlueStar:
1) Operation BlueStar involves a top-secret base 3X larger than the National Mall
This special investigation reveals the exact location of this unbelievable tech project, which is projected to span 1,000 acres and include a 10-million square foot facility. Even at 3X larger than the National Mall, this is still America's most top-secret base.
2) Operation BlueStar will impact 98% of Americans by 2015
If you live anywhere near one of these red dots you will feel the direct effects of Operation BlueStar by 2015. Already, five states are engaged in an economic war for control of the project. For the latest details, go here.
3) The key technology for Operation BlueStar was discovered in a golf cart
The key piece of technology used in Operation BlueStar was actually discovered 24 years ago, by J.B. Straubel while salvaging junk at a local scrap yard.
4) Operation BlueStar could revolutionize the automotive industry
Morgan Stanley released its own investigation and determined that, "We are witnessing the most disruptive intersection of manufacturing, innovation and capital experienced by the auto industry in more than a century."
Forbes believes "a revolution, a true disruptor" is coming.
5) Operation BlueStar is the equivalent of "reinventing fire"
Wired Magazine believes Operation BlueStar will usher in "a truly transformative revolution." And top military think tank, the Rocky Mountain Institute, described its impact as the equivalent of "reinventing fire."
free electricity for your electric car?
“Free” huh?
Big stupid scam is what this sounds like
They’ll have to make them mandatory
the technology was discovered in a golf cart...
BS meter is overloading
Can we all spell “Solyndra”?
Personally, I would like nothing better than to tell the arabs that they can eat their oil because we no longer need it. Also, that grain/corn is now $150/bushel if they are the buyer.
But, the claims made in the article are a bit hard to believe at this point in time. No need for gas? Batteries that charge fast enough (for free?) to replace gas? Available to almost everyone? Sounds great! I’ll believe it when I see it.
Eye in the sky or pie in the sky? My bet is on the second.
Thanks Ernest.
