General Motors Rewrites Transportation History

General Motors, who has been a major funder of the Smithsonian for several years, is under attack for destroying the possibility for electric cars during the 1990s. A new documentary, Who Killed The Electric Car?, is coming out showing this. Honestly, such a documentary seems painfully boring. Is it really going to tell us something that we don't already know? Is this surprising in some way? I don't really think so. It seems all too typical of many recent documentaries that are far more position paper than interesting film.

However, can it be a coincidence that at the same time this movie is coming out, the Smithsonian has chosen to pull its electric car from its exhibit hall to make room for a high-tech SUV? Does seem awful suspicious doesn't it?
