ROCK THE EARTH was fun!

The weather was really good. We had sunshine. My wife got sunburnt! (She is white. Not caucasian. White.)

She and I made the one hour drive in the pickup truck, with the motorcycle in the bed, and towing the Electro-Metro.

There was lots of interest in both vehicles, including by a local radio personality and a professor of ecology from the university. The professor is SERIOUSLY interested in an electric car conversion. I'm hoping I can point him in the right direction to get him going on it.
