Interviews: Ask Lithium-Ion Battery Inventor John Goodenough a Question

John B. Goodenough is a solid-state physicist and professor of mechanical engineering and materials science at The University of Texas at Austin. While he is most famous for identifying and developing the lithium-ion battery, which can be found in just about every portable electronic device on the market, he has recently created a new fast charging solid-state battery that looks to revolutionize the industry. We sent him an email about doing an interview and he has responded. Now is your chance to ask Goodenough a question!

We'll pick the very best questions and forward them to John Goodenough himself. (Feel free to leave your suggestions for who Slashdot should interview next.) Go on, don't be shy!

    Perhaps slashdot should institute a policy of delete-moderation for QandA. I'm all for whatever nonsense in news posts, but this is like inviting a guest into your house and then using them for midget bowling. It's abusive.
