I'm in the paper again

I'm in the local newspaper again. At least this time it isn't for speeding (in an electric car...)

I got a phone call out of the blue from a reporter saying he was doing a story on the coming high gas prices this summer.

He spoke with me briefly, maybe ten minutes total. Then he sent out a photographer to get a photo of me and the car.

The article also has a quote or two from my friend Tom, who built the 300V AC Electric Dodge Neon.

And, of course, it has the typical ERRORs common in local papers. (Can you spot them all?)



You can see a photo of the newspaper article below.
