[B]I think my enthusiasm may have got the better of me but I have come out of retirement and started an online magazine to serve EV manufacturers. The last time I got carried away was back in 1988 when I made a documentary video tape of the International Electric Vehicle Convention and Symposium in Toronto.
It was commissioned by the Electrical Vehicle Association of Canada and I had a grand time taping EVs from all over the world; test driving some and listening to experts talking about the fact that soon 20% of the vehicles on our roads would be electric. That was around 21 years ago and looking back I have the feeling that everyone was being a little too optimistic. I’m hoping this time around we won’t be out smarted by the oil companies and the internal combustion engine manufacturers. I shall do what ever I can to further the cause but in spite of the fact the big car companies have been brought down a notch it is still a David and Goliath situation.[/B]
