Is this BMW version what some were waiting for? I've heard about complaints on hybrid performance. BMW claims to be the best in performance. But did they miss the boat?

Stan Meyer invented a
water powered car that estimates showed could travel from one US coast to the other on 22 gallons of water. He shows the in car in operation in this
old news clip. So what ever happened to him? He died after eating at a restaurant on March 21, 1998. An autopsy report showed the cause of death to be
poisoning.

The Worlds of David Darling. British astronomer and science writer David Darling has written over 10,000 articles for three massive online efforts: the
Encyclopedia of Astrobiology, Astronomy, and Spaceflight, the
Encyclopedia of Alternative Energy and Sustainable Living , and a related
encyclopedia of concept vehicles. Though the diversity of entries can be eccentric, and some are quite short, the science seems solid: learn about the
illicit corned beef sandwich of Gus Grissom, peruse a comprehensive set of
advanced space propulsion concepts, and see a terrific illustrated listing of
strange land and air vehicles (don't miss the
Peel P50 microcar and the
Volvo Gravity Car).
