Automobile Manufacturing Idea

Neil Young (yes, Neil Young the famous rocker) has an interesting article on HuffPo on how to keep American automakers working while they retool to make more energy efficient cars. I'm not enough of an engineer to judge its feasibility, but I'm all for people coming up with innovative ideas. We need lots of them right now, because there are so many crises to deal with and because not all of the ideas will pan out.
