The standard business model nowadays seems to be Invent a car which does 100 mpg, brag about it, get investor money. Squander it like there is no tomorrow, and then file for bankruptcy.

Same goes for new battery technology. Remember those lead foam batteries a few years back? The company went under this year, after getting millions in government grants.

*sigh*
