Inspired by this thread, I watched the deleted scenes from "Who Killed the Electric Car?" and they had a section called "Hallowed Ground" which was the GM Advanced Technology Vehicles lot where you could clearly see two EV1s under car covers. The person interviewed mentioned there were "a handfull" left. They also had pallets and pallets of batteries. I would think the EV1s in that lot were not disabled, and probably just had the batteries pulled. And on a complete whim, I e-mailed a letter to President Obama asking that we mandate car manufacturers to produce electric cars just as California's Air Resource Board had done in the 90's. I know, crazy and pointless, but why not?
