Shai Agassi started a company called Better Place, plans to replace all our gas powered vehicles with electric cars and to build a world wide infrastructure to support these vehicles. Just like in the graphic novel Watchmen Agassi has invented power stations to be placed all over our city's and towns to charge these vehicles. In the graphic novel Veidt invents a charging station that looks much like a fire hydrant you plug your car into when it's parked. Will this change how the world runs? Will it stop wars over oil? How prolific is Watchmen and it's writer Alan Moore?
As the character Rorschach would say, "This needs further investigating."
