On the one hand, I think this is a great idea...on the other hand, I wonder if this will provide a perfect excuse to pave over and develop miles and miles of prime farmland.
Free money from taxpyers? Oh - the Oil Caompanies, you mean. I think they can afford it. And gas prices are rising regardless. The fact that some of the rising price will be spent on alternative fuel research is a plus. There is no gain without pain, even if it's only the pain of doing things a little different than before.
Personally, I'd like to see some of that tax money spent on developing decent public transportation to the distant suburbs so they wouldn't have to drive so far everyday.

I confess I'd especially love for podcasts to be playable on other kinds of portable players. I wonder if that's included in this bill?
