Companies should "go after it"... Only good ideas should even have a chance at a grant... if it shows real promise... Too many want a hand out...

Too many bribes, too much corruption, too many members of the "good ole boy" network.

tazdriver Champion Author Huntsville Posts:4,913 Points:1,911,745 Joined:Jan 2007	Message Posted: Aug 3, 2007 8:51:21 AM Ignore tazdriver Report Abuse Alternative energy would be good, not only for cars but for homes and businesses as well. We have lots of sun, if a viable alternative were available it could be used to generate electricity. I have seen solar panels that look like roof shingles, but apparently they are not readily available yet.
