[ausev] August 8th meeting at REI downtown?

[Gary Ellis]

For next month's meeting (Aug 8th) at REI downtown, I've started a set of
slides for our "EV 101" talk to a public audience.  I'm just gearing it
toward why we think EVs are the way to go and what is out there today.  More
of a public awareness talk rather than how to do your own conversion.

The color scheme and graphics are from the AustinEV.org site.

The last slides are the least complete and I'd like to include shots of all
of the EV conversions we know of in Austin (most from the EVAlbum site), as
well as all the dealers (Alien Scooters, Miles Electric, etc.) and our
conversion shops (ReVolt, ReinCarNation).  We'll update these slides as we
go, but feel free to point me to specific photos you want included or
suggest changes, etc.

We can talk more about this presentation at this Saturday's meeting, but I
just wanted to get something started.
Thanks,

Gary
