They're not alternatives to petroleum, which is what the EV crowd is dead-set against.

Besides, who says it's bad being green? I'm here, aren't I? I've made contributions here which have been shown to reduce fuel consumption, right?

I just don't buy into the whole green-as-religion idea. An open mind is paramount, but it does not mean that one's mind should be so open that junk falls in and crowds out the facts.
