Post EVent from Steven Lough
The Seattle Green Festival 2008 has come and gone. The attendance far exceeded their estimates. Next years venue Must certainly be larger. Our SEVA/Plug-In-America booth was busy, VERY busy every hour of all 17 hours !! Thanks to all our SEVA members and helpers from MC Electric for coming in to help. We gave out every hand out we had. Over 700 SEVA pamphlets, hundreds of Post cards from MC Electric, And the Green Car Co., and hundreds of info pamphlets on Plug-In-America. When Sunday 2 pm rolled around, Chelsea Sexton, the Star from Who Killed the Electric Car came, and the 45 minute talk in Room 2 was crowded to over capacity. Lots of good questions from the capacity audience. Ms. Shefali Ranganathan from Transportation Choices, gave some good counterpoints to Automobile Use in General. I had one question of the audience as the lecture ended. "Did they feel that Transportation could have had a stronger Presence at the Festival ?" 2/3rds of the Audience raised their hands !! Many folks said it was the only reason they came. Chelsea stuck a round for another hour talking with folks at our booth. She is a true EV Trooper. Said she had not been home for over 8 days. We wish her well.
Again I want to thank Dan Davids, and all the folks who manned our booth over the 17 hours. We should be ready to have another large INFLUX of New SEVA members show up at the May 13th Meeting.. And DAVE CLOUD... Get ready to take on another half Dozen Conversion Jobs !!!!
