Hi Brian - thanks for setting up the forum about power assist!

There is just such a lack of perspective (knowledge) out there.

One nice thing about the electrics is, they can get their power from anywhere - nuclear, coal, nat.gas, but also hydro, wind and solar... even gravity and inertia.

The meat engines on pedal bikes are pretty filthy really...

In 2004, National Geographic reported that it takes about three-quarters of a gallon of gasoline to produce a pound of steak, in other words there is a heavy hydrocarbons content in modern foods, so meat engines burn a lot of hydrocarbons...

And their exhaust is a stream of food packaging for recycling or to be dumped into a hole in the ground somewhere, and sewage that's flushed into our drinking water...

Sorry this is OT

tks
