gm is the anti-christ

so last night i had the pleasure of attending an advanced screening for the new documentary who killed the electric car with an interesting audience q&a with the director and "star" after the film.

i'm not going to go into a lot of detail (do i hear a collective sigh of relief) as i think anyone who's read my blog the last few days knows how i feel about the topic, but i strongly urge to see this film when it opens nation wide in july. if you can't see the movie, please check out the website - it's exceedingly chock-full of interesting information about ev's (electric vehicles) as well as green transportation in general.

i'll just leave you with this interesting little fact: 100 years ago there were more electric cars on the road than gas powered

i'm off to see aimee mann tonight, hopefully i'll get some good stage right pics for ya'll.

Well, thank Allah for karma-- because GM is sure paying now for their folly back then. If GM survives another 5 years without going bankrupt, it'll be a miracle.

one day while tooling down the 210 freeway in los angeles metro, four car carriers pass me by all of them carrying the last of the EV1s to their destruction ... what a sad thing it was when i found out the answer to my question ... 'what are they doing with all those EV1s?' i thought they were using them for a commercial ... too bad it was actually for a movie shoot.

... bit of a plug, because i saw you dig aimee mann ...
