- A couple stories about Gordon Cooper’s Ford Ranger Electric Car: KLTV and News Journal.
- Red Herring has an interview with Martin Eberhard, the founder of Tesla Motors, about starting a new car company to make electric vehicles.
- Lumina launches a new warm light LED. Designed to be “a super-bright, very long lasting and energy efficient alternative to halogen and incandescent lamps but with the same warm, eye-appealing glow.” They also have a LED “light engine” designed for automotive technicians, called CentraL.E.D..
- Comedian Robert Newman’s take on the history of oil.
Brilliant, the “History of Oil” movie. What a good job Robert Newman has made of a difficult subject. Ah well, he’s preaching to the converted here on this site I expect..
Jerry, I have sat here in South Africa reading your site as a rgular reader for the past 8 months (almost always the first site I go to when I turn on my PC). That being said I have never commented on this site because a lot of the technologies are just out of reach of the ordinary person in South Africa.
After the 7 hour download to watch the “History of Oil”, which was absolutely excellent and drove home his point of “everyone can do something”, I now am going to be far more active in getting my own thoughts and project ideas transformed into reality.
Again, thanks for an excellent site, and for those who haven’t watched this please do (it’s only 7 hours if you are still on a 28.8 Modem in South Africa, everyone else shouldn’t have a problem – he he).
There’s dedication!
Hi Kevin and welcome!
Just for giggles I looked at a map of the last 100 visitors and, sure enough, there you are!
It's good to hear from you and be sure to let us know how your projects go.
