My fav. quotes:
"We're
getting beat by the French in nuclear power, and by the world in natural
gas vehicles. We should be leaders, not laggards."
"I have a mission ladies and gentlemen. That mission is to try to explain
what I've just explained here. And no matter how many times I explain it
nobody argues with me about it. Which is interesting because I wish
somebody would jump up and say you're wrong and let me show you where
you're wrong. And nobody does that. Everybody says, well, that sounds like
a good idea.
So, I don't know whether it's a good idea or whether they don't understand."
He also said that GM has 16 platforms for CNG and NONE are sold in the US.
