the electric car,
is our only hope.

That ancd the idea of the neighborhood work-site. In other words, in any given metro area, there could not be more than 20% of anybody who needs to be anywhere more than a mile from their homes more than one day a week; every body else could be working four of the five days from a neighborhood site he walks to or drives less than a mile to; get rid of 70% of the commuting. THAT idea could be implemented in four months and we could tell OPEC to screw off.

"the electric car,
is our only hope."

Gas!

I hooked up a stationary bicycle,
In the back of my compact car,
I use no fuel except vegetables,
But I still cannot get very far.

The problem, you see, is the motor,
Which frequently has to be fed,
And the filling is not problematic,
It's the emptying process instead.
