Gasoline
has its advantages, chief among them that it works. In fact, the
gasoline engine does a good job of offering power for the dollar, which
is why Americans settled on gasoline as their fuel of choice a century
ago. For all the knocks on it, gasoline has a variety of advantages: it
packs a lot of energy for its volume and weight, it's transportable,
and it is available at a price that makes it accessible to the masses.
In addition, the entire gasoline-based infrastructure works, from
getting oil out of the ground to making gasoline available at a
convenient pump very near when you are right now. There currently is no
better alternative.
