Once again it's time for Eco101:

"Right now it costs more than $1 a pound to buy aluminum, and, at that price, you can't deliver a product at the equivalent of $3 per gallon of gasoline," Woodall said.

There are lots of alternatives to gasoline out there, but they ARE TOO FREAKING EXPENSIVE!!!!

A fuel and/or process should not be considered an 'alternative' until it's cost is competitive with the status quo. As long as gasoline is the cheapest way to fuel a car, gasoline will be king. This is not a 'threat' to the oil industry.
