Excellent Darryl; Thanks for the post. I'll talk to the alt fuels group here at UW and see what I can find out about what the research title affords them. I know the solar car for example does not even require a license to be driven on the road. I welcome your input from your experience with the registry. Also give us a recap on the conference when you return. I want an electric car. I was watching the movie GATACCA on the weekend and it looked like a '70's vintage Fiat spyder that they were portraying as an electric vehicle in one of the scenes. It inspired me to get one and take the engine out......what a classy ride that woud be. Say hello to the Pacific for me and tell her I miss her.

Certainly a description of the rules that do exist (and proposed as we become aware of them) for each jurisdiction with Canada would be useful. It's something I had in mind for the Ottawa co-op when I lent the greendiesel.com URL to them. Perhaps we can co-ordinate something, even using three or more sites. Let's talk some about this next week when I get back from Vancouver (electric vehicle conference this week including hybrids and hydrogen hype).Darryl McMahon (BTW, I already maintain registries for on-road electric vehicles and electric tractors on the Web, so I might have some useful information on structure and data.)

Originally my idea was just a kind of registry on my website which is sponsored by the university I work for. My idea was that cars registered on my site could be claimed to be part of a fleet of research vehicles. That may be a valuable claim when the time comes that the powers try to put the screws to home brewers. Joe www.nonprofitfuel.ca Mike Weaver wrote: |
