Indeed.

The hybrid shown below was created almost entirely from used or discarded components - yes, even the pair of li-ion cordless drill batteries strapped under the seat. The other half of this picture, is the 186w Sanyo bifocal PV that serves as a home-based 'filling station'.

Reality is, I didn't do it to be "green".... I did it because I got sick'n tired of being perpetually strapped to OPEC's greed... with no alternatives.
