The same thing happened in Britain, several people came up with excelent
ideas for battery powered cars that would have a good milage rate, without
the need for millions of car batterys to hold the charge. Their ideas were
patented and then *bought* by the large oil companys.

Have we now got lots of battery powered cars running around the UK ?

Nnnnnooooooooooo we havn't. But we still have lots and lots of petrol driven
cars and trucks!
