Man! Don't get me started on this subject here, it's my pet peeve.
I've been wanting an electric car since 1973 when the first petroleum scare happened. Today you still can't get one. I have driven three different models in 2001 on a test track. Loved them. Since then pfffttt! They're all gone. Even I you plunked the cash down, you just can't get one, except for a californian race car.
If you want some more info on energy, Home Power.com has a very comprehensive list of links on different topics. E-cars, solar, wind, biofuels etc.
