Once again, good show guys!  Well-done interview with Larry Cottingham of Integrity Automotive - he is very likeable, and I hope he is successful in this venture- I am especially glad he wants to move manufacturing back to the US.  My concern is the ZAP side of things- they say reasonable things, but their history and burned investors speak volumes.  Well- time will tell I guess.  In the meanteam, you can see Mr. Cottingham's current web site for his dealership at:  http://www.zeroautopollution.com/
And see the tree-planting efforts at:  http://www.zaptrees.org/ 

The LA Times article on the Fiskar and the Tesla, while nothing new, is interesting none the less, and is at:  http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/uptospeed/2008/11/fisker-michigan.html

The stirling engine is an intriguing, different, type of engine.  One company is using it to generate electricity with their Concentrated Thermal Solar Power devices, which look pretty cool!  You can see it at the Stirling Energy Systems site, at:  http://stirlingenergy.com/default.asp

Here is an article on Dean Kamen's automotive exercise with the Stirling Engine, but this is from over a year ago: http://www.eroei.com/articles/2007-articles/dean-kamens-stirling-solution/

You can read a more recent, interesting article from the UK on Dean Kamen, that includes info on his EV and the Stirling Engine, here:  http://www.telegraph.co.uk/scienceandtechnology/science/sciencenews/3353906/Dean-Kamen-part-man%2C-part-machine.html

But, to see the best of today's show, the Electric DeLorean by Dr David Delman:  http://electricdelorean.com/ 

And Bo- your Christopher Lloyd impression is much better than your GAV impression;-)

You might be right Paul, I've given up on training Bo to "spayk lyk ahs" (10 points to anyone who can figure that out).

Don't wash those pants Bo! Ryan doodled a genuine Levesque on them. Put them on Ebay. ;)

"Speak like us" Gav?  Oh boy!  What AM  I going to do with all those points;-)......Oh darn!  Didn't scroll down far enough to see John already got the points- probably squandered them anyway:-(
