My name is on the waiting list, it is only going to be available in CA this
year just like the Tesla Roadster was at first.

I haven't seen that film yet but I have serious doubt that electric cars
were ready for primetime 15 years ago outside of short distances in the
state of CA. The simple electric conversions I've come across and read about
are way too compromised for most people to tolerate. Some healthy skeptcisim
might be in order for any documentary with political overtones.

Yeah, I've seen it, and tried to tell people about it, but until you
actually watch it yourself, you will not truly understand how bad of a
situation it was.  

Nice to see all the car makers working on electric again, but I have no
confidence in the industry, because I just think the same things will happen
all over again.

I just watched the documentary, "Who Killed The Electric Car", and now I
feel violated.

I could not find the video in any Derby video stores, but I found a copy at
our Library.

I highly recommend watching this video.

Maybe my Miata should get an electric motor swap.

Here are some interesting websites.
