There appears to be a reluctant,however shifting awareness that,electrification of much of industry offers such available 'thermal' efficiencies,that liquid fuels of all stripes will simply be unable to compete,and would be a failed business model to pursue.Folly.
If capitalism reflects the best thinking,and Wall St. values Tesla Motors above GM and Ford combined,or Volkswagen Group en toto,etc.,then it appears that the smartest guys in the room are staring straight into the face of all 'fuels' as an eclipsed,superannuated technology (industry),heading for the dustbin of history.
