hetfield,
Yes! Since few minutes after the crash i am looking to the issue: The danger Lithium batteries poses to us.
AFAIK UPS 744 was not transporting Li Po batteries nor using Li Ion batteries.
We are concentrated on li Ion and not Li Po,

This thread is addressing 787 grounding.
The same type of battery is in operation right now in just one other type: The Airbus 380. The mention to this fact is pertinent to the discussion on the reasons of 787 grounding specially because FAA put the battery* at the focus.
i am concentrated on the 787 issue (battery selection are important to me as a designer) and may be your suggestion could be accepted by someone interested to create another thread.
(*) And the problem can be not exactly with the battery (chemistry) technology.
