Years ago when Novell switched over to Linux operating systems, one of their largest fears was the trouble integrating their documents in a Microsoft stardard based world. It turns out that Open Office was more than adequate concerning reading/writing various document standards.
I would have to say that the production of hybrid automobiles is not going to bankrupt the transportation department. The largest threat that transportation commitees should be working on is depletion of fossil fuels. It is estimated that within 50 years the Earth's supply of crude oil will be completely used up. Now this might raise an interesting question to the state government. "How much higher are we going to have to raise the gas tax in order to keep the roads maintained without actually selling any gas?" The hybrid car purchasers should be rewarded since they are helping prolong the inevidable problem as a reasonalbe alternitive is researched.
