That's at least one of the analogies used by the U.S. Department of Energy on Friday when it announced the launch of a new advanced research "Battery Hub," to the tune of a $120 million, five-year government grant. . .http://idealab.talkingpointsmemo.com/2012/11/energy-department-launches-battery-hub-for-battery-manhattan-project.php
