Acknowledgements and Disclaimers

The following companies and organizations, and the individuals mentioned who work or worked for them (and some others whose names I never got), have been particularly helpful to me in learning about and getting involved with alternative-fueled motor vehicles. However, I am neither a spokesman for nor an employee of any of them, and any trademarks that appear in this site (like, say, the GM emblem on the nose of the EV1 in the picture on the first page) are the property of their respective owners. Statements of fact in this website are often quoted from one of these sources, or from other WWW sites on the topic of alternative fuels; interpretations and opinions, however, are my own.
