| The 'holy grail' of batteries: Scientists develop an 'iron-air' battery that stores electricity for days through rusting - and is a fraction of the cost of lithium-ion equivalents |

| #6 "The battery works through rusting iron and then reversing the rusting process" What are the power input costs for this "process"? |

| #3 I was gobsmacked by the commercial for the new Ford electric F-150 pickup: They showed the owner proudly plugging his battery into his garage and powering his house during a power failure. D'Oh! What happens first: the electric company fixes the outage or the driver (and his family!) are stranded with no means of transportation? |

| #2 Didn't realize I had an 'electric pickup'. |

| #1 That is good. Our civilization does need a more efficient and less toxic battery despite of "climate change". We will only consume more things that need electricity and non-toxic batteries will be vital. |
