I'm hoping Tesla (or someone wanting to sell to Tesla and others) will come up with the next solution. Either an alternative or an improved battery.

No, it is so unlikely that battery production will remain fixed when demand for batteries increases. You know, supply and demand and all. |

Yep, it is possible that at some point in the future, there will be a shortage of LiIon batteries. You know what else we might possibly have a shortage of in the future? Everything.
Really fascinating analysis.

This is who I was cheering for during the Automotive bailouts. ...Also Ford (for not needing any bailouts) and Toyota (for having plants in Alabama and being 'an American automaker'.) _________________ "History began on July 4,1776. Everything before that was a mistake." -Ron Swanson |
