Better come prepared with this info when you fly back to apply to DC. Maybe you better ride your bikes this time, huh? You should have kept the tooling for the EV-1 and you could have bailed yourself out, you idiots! Hey GM- don’t crush this lot, or you’ll never get that bailout loan.

A factory that's 3x3 miles is around 251 million square feet.

Apparently, they're still at it. Looks like they've been looking for improvements in the CATHODE and have found some: http://www.greencarcongress.com/2008/10/limn2o4-nanorod.html#more Best of luck to them and I hope they take a lesson from Ovshinsky (re: Cobasys), if it's successful don't sell control of the technology or we won't see it in any meaningful way for about 2 decades.

To sum up impressions: big hype as of now. This guy, Dr. Cui, has been quoted all over the net to have "a breakthrough". It is NOT REAL. Unfortunately. This is bad news. Kept me dreaming so nicely.... Have read all of it. To sum up impressions: big hype as of now. This guy, Dr. Cui, has been quoted all over the net to have “a breakthrough”. It is NOT REAL.
