Natural gas for cars won't work now and for some time to come. In his scenario we could reduce our dependency on oil by XXXX, can't remember amount but it was a bunch. Right now we are using all the NG we are producing, just like oil and yes just like we were corn. Sooo ethanol became the thing and more corn was planted, but not enough. (It would be impossible to raise enough corn to save much oil)Then corn was in short supply and it causes many things to go up because of corn price. Now, again ethanol isn't the thing and looks like corn is going down. What I'm trying to say is if we run cars off natural gas we will have to drill, drill, drill and then we don't have the distribution, or cars ready or place to compress and sell that huge amount. It will cost billions just to do that. Why not drill,drill, drill for oil. At least we have distribution, a way to sell and cars that can use it NOW, not some time later. Just think of the jobs created here producing that oil. The politicians are fusing about sending jobs over seas. Me too. Why are they wanting to keep sending these oil producing jobs over seas? I don't and at least I am consistent. Think about all the energy wasted just getting that foreign oil here. That alone could run a few cars. Have any of you heard what they are paying land owners to put a windmill on their land? Ridiculous. You have heard about neighboring land owners getting royalties because some of that oil might be seeping from their property. Wait till the lawyers get to trying to figure who gets a piece of the pie because that wind came across some ones property before theirs.
