TRANSPORTATION is the master key to basic survival, and the cornerstone of the economy. We all know that transportation presently depends on oil production, and oil production is peaking. We must focus first on transportation – it is the highest priority. The PickensPlan to transition vehicles to natural gas is a great start toward 100% energy independence, but is a stop-gap measure till we can transition to all electric transportation. Electric energy is strained without adding transportation demands; so we must focus on drastic efficiency improvement.
Evacuated Tube Transport (ETT) is a patented technology where travel occurs without air friction or rolling resistance (like “Space Travel on Earth”); ETT can accomplish 50 times more transportation per kWh (or carbon credit) than electric cars or trains. ETT is silent, low cost, safe, faster than jets, and is electric so it can make maximum use of wind or PV power. I invite you to visit my page to learn more about ETT

People even used the roof's of their barns as billoards. It worked then so I don't seen why not now. But people are a lot more selfish. even little old ladies and old men seen to be driving like they are racing to stay ahead of death. Unless Congress lowers the speed limit I don't see how most people will slow down to save gas. Even then cops would have to carry extra ticket books. Just look at all the money the towns could collect if the speed limit was loweredt. LOL
