This is the kind of entrepreneurism we need today

I bought the September 2008 edition of Wired magazine simply because of what was on the cover - the title "The Future of the Electric Car". Good marketing on their part. But I'm glad I bought the magazine, because otherwise, I wouldn't have found out about Shai Agassis. This guy wants to get all fossil fuel burning cars off the road and replace them with pure electric cars. He has a plan, which includes not only having a charging station at home and at work, but stations where you can quickly exchange your dying battery for a fully charged one. But this guy isn't a dreamer, he's actually putting this plan to the road, in Israel and Denmark. For starters........

It's quite the story.
