Sustainable Transportation and Energy Technologies Show - June 13th

[Eric Jelinski <jelinski@idirect.com>]

At the expense of boring everybody..... I sent this posting out on the
26th, but I did not get it sent back to me via the list... I saw very no
list activity on the weekend, and therefore I think my post went into
cyberspace..... so here it is again.  My apologies, if this is indeed a
repeat message............

The Durham Electric Vehicle Association and the Professional Engineers of
Ontario want to thank everyone for coming to the "Sustainable
Transportation and Energy Show" on Saturday June 13th. 

We hope that everyone found the show enjoyable and informative. By our
counting, approximately 400 people came to the show, and the follow-up
press coverage was excellent. We especially want to thank all of the
exhibitors who brought their products and ideas to put on display, and we
want to thank the staff at Durham College for allowing us the use of their
excellent facilities. 

The Exibits are summarized as follows:
Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicle 	1
Electrothon Car 	2
High School Cars built for Queens University Electric Car Contest: 	2
High School Robot 	1
High School full sized electric car conversion 	1
Factory built original electric cars 	2
Private individual full sized electric car conversions 	4

_______ Total number of exhibits: 	29
We certainly call this show a success; and, we are now organizing a similar
show to be held next year at about the same time. 
Please watch for details as they become available we will send them to you.
For more information about the show, or the Professional Engineers of
Ontario, or the Durham Electric Vehicle Association, please call, fax, or
