I'm definitely interested. I remember someone on another forum posting about it. Not a whole lotta stuff, but it seems like fun. And it's free as in beer too, can't beat that. Well, not counting gas money.

Edit- Arg, parking is $5! I may just toss my bike in the back and ride from someplace close by.

It's really close to me, but I'll be out of town.

Dammit.

Went to the one they held there about six months ago. It was fun.

On National Public Radio there was an interview, I forget who, but two men authors of a book about the future of the auto. Bottom line: fuel cells is going to be the big thing. The blurr between car makers and energy providers will dominate. General Motors is making a run for high technology, and may out run the Japanese automakers.
