Funny but the gas burner's I talk to seem to like the idea better than the
Eva's.
Jon Halquest said he would rather try to sell "crown of thorns" head gear to
a motor cycle shop then a windmill hood ornament for an electric car. Then
two hours later he calls and has a windmill on the website and somebody
making him one. so he will set up something . He's not the guy that did the
cd-rom . I'd like him to set it up like the EV album with the top ten new
ones on front page and the rest some were else.
I am still thing the electric cord in the gas tank for gas car drivers as it
can be done easily and without them spending any money but the hood ornament
shows you have class. the web site is www.grassrootsev.com
People I talked to have been coming up with some good Ideas
The three fire men at world trade center razing the flag (windmill
instead of flag little ev car parked behind it ect)this would have to be
cast
use windmill h.o. for charging cell phone and other 12v stuff .
I'm thinking that all the people with flags on the cars would like to take
it up a notch . Think if all those flags were cords
I think ford would have to put the plug back in . Like that "yellow ribbon
" thing that is still going on even today .
