The hybrid cars are a big step forward, but because we have to have such big cars they have the approximate gas milage as the cars being sold in the late 70's early 80's. So the technology benefits us how?
You want to reduce energy problems the thing you need to do is make the consumer change. There are incentives being put out for hybrids like access to HV lanes even though you only have a driver.

The current technology is in its infancy, and I think what ultimately prevails will look a whole lot different than what is prevailing today. I'd like to see 10X the number of models/ideas as is currently in the marketplace.
The consumer is changing and will continue to chage for as long as there is price pressure to do so, and not a minute longer.
