Any Amiga.org users have an EV? Homebrewed?

when I 1st went to LA (california), i found out about a group of people who converted cars to electrical.
They had a meeting in Pasadena. I asked to drive the guys car in the parking lot. (i think the meeting was at the college there).
aside from turning the key and not hearing a sound, the car felt normal.

I'm sure if you searched you could find groups there that would have alot of helpful info. they have been doing it for years!

i guess some people just don't want to believe me when I said the electric car i drove felt JUST LIKE A REGULAR CAR.

none are so blind.......etc.

anyway, for those interested in moving into the future,

for those interested in seeing one of the many ways New York is looking into making electricity aside from wasting oil:

here they will be using the currents in the east river to generate energy.

and before you assume that's means very little:

"The East River off Roosevelt Island may one day generate enough electricity to power office buildings the size of the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center."

(and before some wise a55 makes some dumb comment, the East River has been clean for the last couple of decades now. last spring i saw a SWAN swimming with a bunch of ducks. it was white and stayed white. plus, alot of geese come by Roosevelt Island and make their babies there. I've got photos!!)

the Stilwell subway station in coney island will be powered entirely by solar panels. (except the trains, of course). the station is QUITE large. when i find a link i'll put it here. it should be done this year. can't wait to visit the Cyclons (minor league baseball) and see it.

that's the way they should design malls.
