USA is 'stuck in reverse' on fuel economy

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17344368/

I have a bunch of old auto magazines and auto books here.One of the
magazines (MPG magazine,I think it is) has an article which dates back
to the 1970's.A piano tuner guy in California fixed up his Toyota car
with a 20 HP gasoline engine and four alternators and four batteries and
an electric motor.Each alternator charges one battery,one alternator per
battery.In the article,he claimes he gets 168 miles per gallon.

If the American population has failed to see the big picture by now,
it is unlikely that they will receive a mass epiphany now, even as
gasoline prices are on the rise again....
