Plug-in hybrids gaining momentum

"Uncertainty" is preventing auto-makers from adopting either hybrids or hybrid plug-ins according to a new BusinessWeek article. Yet, according to experts technology exists "That changes the world" today. Of course, the real question is whether it is profitable for automakers to end foreign-oil dependency while significantly cleaning the environment - the same environment automakers are significantly responsible for damaging in the first place.

It doesn't really matter? Former CIA Chief R. James Woolsey, and many other former Republican and Democrat intelligence experts disagree, agreeing that foreign-oil dependency "is a war issue" and the potential for hybrid plug-ins in this war is "phenomenal".

Sure good to know GM and Ford are leading America through such troubled times. Demand nothing less than hybrid car efficiency.
