I personally think Diesel still has a great future.

My world view on fuel would be ...

-More efficient diesels to replace gas
-Incorporating Diesel generators with Electric cars to reduce dependancy on diesel
-Incorporate Solar power with Electric in order to phase out Diesel and all other Fossil fuel
-At the same time develop Hydrogen powered cars derived from water
-Eventually drive water powered cars not needing battery banks or non-renuable fossil fuels

I think this time line stretches well into the Jetsons, but why can't one dream.

Money will always trump progress, especially when progress cuts back on the money. Maybe one day wealth will loose meaning, opening the doors for real progress. Yeah right ..
