Damn!
Sears and NTB must be switching over already, because of the two stores I'd just visited they only had one (1) battery available for the CRX!

There won't be "electronic valves" for "run-of-the mill_ cars for decades.
It's more about delivering power to and from the wheels for braking, steering and motive force.

Is it in print again?
I thought the few episodes of the video series were pretty cool!
haha ... sorry, your planet didn't respond to the notice/hearing on the Intergalactic-Highway and will be vaporized next week.
