Les Goldman wants you to convert (your hybrid.) Add more batteries as they become cheaper and more energy-dense, dump the engine; or, for the more fantasy-minded and those receiving compensation, add hydrogen fuel cell and drop the engine.) They've been converting some cars back east, working out the kinks. Easy as 123.
