You live in a fantasy world. There are no service buses running totally off super capacitors. Or batteries, come to that.

"There's just one catch: the best ultracapacitors can only store about 5 percent of the energy that lithium-ion batteries hold, limiting them to a couple of miles per charge. "

Which is *exactly* how these work:

"The trick is to turn some bus stops along the route into charge stations, says Dan Ye, executive director of Sinautec. Unlike a conventional trolley bus that has to continually touch an overhead power line, Sinautec's ultracapacitor buses take big sips of electricity every two or three miles at designated charging stations, which double as bus stops. When at these stations, a collector on the top of the bus rises a few feet and touches an overhead charging line. Within a couple of minutes, the ultracapacitor banks stored under the bus seats are fully charged."

Yup, just did. Still none. Where is the hydro coming from dribble?

I think you missed some punctuation

"Where is the hydro coming from? Dribble?"

or

"Where is the hydro coming from, dribble?"

I think the first case (in the case of dribble) answers the question of the case of the firsts and second cases... if you see what I mean.
