WKRG.com News
One of the 100 most influential people of 2009 by Time magazine is a 42 year old Israeli businessman, Shai Agassi. Whom happens to be developing a global network of charging spots and “battery switch stations,” which will effectively work as gas stations for electric cars. He is a man on a mission to wean the world off it’s oil addiction and turn everyone into electric car drivers. With his California-based company, Better Place, Agassi has partnered with car maker Renault-Nissan to produce the first generation of emission-free electric cars, the Renault Fluence ZE design delivers comfort, styling and flexibility. The world’s first switchable battery electric car will be available in early 2011, which Agassi says “will not be more expensive than your average Sedan.” (more…)

You may have heard of this process referred to as “Brown’s Gas”.
Turn your current car into a water burning Hybrid. Run your car on water
and gas and double your mileage!! You will notice on the left hand side of
this blog a widget for running your car on water. I told you before that
I would not advertise anything on this site that I had not at least
checked out or purchased. Well, I purchased this and was going to wait (more…)

By using the technological equivalent of the power of lightning, a company called
Plasco, has a goal to turn our garbage problem into a profitable energy solution.
Plasmagasification is the process of turning waste into electricity. Plasma is
sometimes called the 4th state of matter. The first state is solid, add heat to a
solid and it becomes the second state, liquid. Add heat to a liquid and it is (more…)

I do not know about you, but here in East Texas, they have been advertising about
the transition to digital signal for your TV in February, 2009.
So your analog TV will not receive a signal from your local channels with an
antenna. You will have to purchase a digital converter for $50.00 in order (more…)

You know, the feeling of the oil companies and car companies in cohoots
together is getting bigger by the day.
What if the car manufacturers have been figuring out how to produce cheap
hydrogen vehicles all the while pouring expensive hybrids into the market to
work out the bugs of their future energy efficient vehicles. Meanwhile, the big
oil companies are currently using the money they gouge from us to plan conversion
of the gas station into hydrogen stations and stockpiling of hydrogen reserves,
figuring out transportation methods which would be the about same as present day
chemicals and gas.
The car manufacaturers are awaiting the go ahead from big oil for the
day of conversion to announce their cheap hydrogen vehicles.
Then add insult to injury, the rich keep getting richer…
You know that this is possible. Is anyone out there thinking the same?????
