in Are you a hypermiler? on Scobleizer
I know what you mean Jewellery. It can be intimidating being in front of those drivers. My suggestion is to just slow down even more, or to even jam on the brakes. If they hit you, that's their fault--their insurance rates will let them know they need to slow down and cool it. I used to be one of those drivers years ago, and I do confess, sometimes in LA I can still get that road rage feeling, but I still see plenty of cars speed by me all the time, and it makes me laugh when I finally get to the red light and there they are sitting there too!

in The Myers Motors NmG Electric Vehicle on EcoTech Daily
I wish these guys all the success in the world. But $36k for a SOV (Single Occupant Vehicle)? Are you kidding me? The Volt by GM is said to cost about as much and if I had to pick between the two, i'd go for the Volt. I did an interview with a company spokesman awhile back--you can listen to it here: http://www.podtech.net/classic/1695/myers-motor...

in Who Killed the Fuel Cell Car? on EcoTech Daily
I was surprised too! Especially when you hear GM's Larry Burns make the remarks himself. An audio podcast of his keynote address at the NHA conference in Sacramento is here: http://www.gmnext.com/uploads/assets/nha%20-%20...

in Who Killed the Fuel Cell Car? on EcoTech Daily
Having just attended the National Hydrogen Assoc's annual conference in Sacramento, I can assure you, GM isn't abandoning hydrogen. Larry Burns, GM's VP for RD and Strategic Planning just gave a speech about GM's hydrogen and calling on gov't to fund the infrastructure. Hydrogen Forecast has an interview with Larry here: http://www.hydrogenforecast.com/ArticleDetails....

in GM Vice-Chair Bob Lutz Explains It All on EcoTech Daily
I like Bob. He speaks without a filter and as a journalist I like his authenticity. And whether it's to combat global warming or to get us off foreign oil, the Volt will be a game changer when it appears and Lutz's comittment to it will help insure it's arrival. I for one am waiting to buy a new car until the Volt appears as I don't ever want to pull into a service station again, unless its because I have to use the restroom!
