    If batteries are universal say 3 types like the gas grades, then the recharge and range problems will be gone.

    Having driven a pure EV for 18 months, you learn to live - hapily - with a 100 mile range and cheap home charging. The problem is not charging etiquette. The problem is GM for putting a crappy hybrid out there that "forces" people to drive on batteries alone as much as possible.
