Really interesting report on the future of electric cars

Normally, I listen to the Newshour with Jim Lehrer in podcast form , since it’s usually not very video intensive. Barring that, I do TiVo it so I can always watch it later. But their report on electric cars sounded too good to not watch: Rising oil prices and improvements in battery technology are fueling new interest in developing electric cars. Spencer Michels reports on how industry giants and start-up car companies alike plan to release new vehicles by 2010. Fortunately, they do video streaming also, which is where I found the video of their report . It honestly seems like PBS, NPR, and the like taking the most advantage of new technology lately.
