I follow the debate about fuel efficiency and clean air standards
with interest. I recommend that you folks at the ARB look into a
technological creation of an inventor near Portland, Oregon. Look
up the citation on the web under the heading gasoline/hydraulic
automobile. Imagine the possibilities of making an automobile that
(a) can travel at highway speeds, (b) achieves 74 miles per gallon,
and (c) uses only 16 horsepower. The original article was publish
in The Mother Earth News. This invention might just well be a
planet saver. In additional, there are some folks in the midwest
who have been able to use this initial design and improve upon it
and achieve over 100 miles per gallon. Will this invention ever be
embraced by the auto companies? Probably not. Let's consider the
long-range consequences. We could very well return to a condition
that prevailed upon the earth over 20,000 years ago when what is
not Manhattan Island and most of Europe were covered by ice over
1000's of feet thick. Look up the chart under the heading The
temperature of the earth. Write to be for specific details, please,
sincerely, Richard Wright, English Professor, Solano community
