i heard about a french car that is air powered. forget the name offhand, but i have to point out some good things about it.

>with cars being air powered, we reduce our oil intake. also, air is free, and is everywhere.

>gas stations could become air stations. the charge will be only to use the machine.

>thus, we could save those jobs.

>if at the air stations a filter was installed, we could reduce current pollution in the air.

>you could buy a machine to charge the car at night.

>there is no risk of explosion. the tanks will not blow up bdue to the strength of the air cans (compare to scuba tanks). a risk of fire is negligible, but there because of the oil to keep the parts running smooth.

now yes one of the downsides is air doesnt last long in terms of long distance driving. something like hydrogen or solar could be put to use in cross country trips.

>another downside is unemployment. that will rise, but we could use those people in the areas of envriomental concern and car building.

also, another group was developing cars that can link up on a monorail-style expressway. use maglev, and long distance travel could be made in minutes or hours instead of days. heck, that could rid the hydrogen idea.

this is killing multiple birds with one stone. reduce pollution, better transportation, free natural resource. use in conjunction with other ideas, world transportation could change.

anyone got comments, ideas, complaints on this?

and does anyone remember the name of that company that sells the air car?

Unfortunately, the oil companies will not allow it and will threaten anyone who tries to sell a technology that threatens their money-making industry. :-/
