Discussing the Electric Vehicle

Much of the time, when the electric car is debated, most don't believe it is a feasible solution. I looked for logical approaches to implementing the EV and came across this author and speaker. I found his steps logical for today's demands and overall interesting. Pricing right now doesn't make a mass movement feasible, but with today's technological advancements I would assume that the pricing would fall if the govt. were to back a movement to the EV.  What do you think?
