Shai Agassi has a plan.
http://webcast.berkeley.edu/event_details.php?seriesid=f2949e45-1545-444f-b6aa-f03349e1966a&p=1&ipp=15&category=
Shai Agassi, Founder & CEO of Better Place has an idea about how to build an electric car infrastructure with a cell-phone economic model. Of course the words cell-phone model don't describe it quite right. Anyway, the link above is a link to both audio and video for the event where he describes it. You can download it to your iPod, you can set it to play in the background, whatever. Somebody please watch it and help me figure out a reason to not be passionate about this stuff.
Edited: There's an article in last week's NYTimes about this, too.

Sounds great, doesn't it? And pleas like "we should all take bikes" fall on my deaf ears, since asthma and other minor disabilities make biking or walking not possible. If we had urban transit systems like the Europeans, (or eve NYC) I'd use them, but when it's a 3 hour commute to get from Mountain View to SFSU, I'm driving, thanks.
