Like to see some opinions on this..

Gore needs to talk to everyone. He needs to create a groundroots movement and prove to the money men that the public is looking for products/solutions they can provide. Sadly, without the potential to make money, the money men are not going to lineup to do the right thing. I think Gore is doing a decent job at this. He has to chip away at the estabishment and slowly get people to come around. Those that are in seats of power are not going to do much to risk those seats. Until the people come knocking on the door, and pull a Marie Antoinette, will you see the ruling class pay heed to the wishes of the peasants. IMO, all its going to take is one success story by a startup, and the house of cards comes crashing down. If Tesla or Zap can produce a successful vehile that establishes a solid market share, the established car companies will panic and follow. That is the begining of the end to our current beliefs and the begining of a new way of treating our planet. Great changes start with great ideas, but happen with one conversion at a time. Watch "Who Killed the Electric Car" to see what I mean.
