| James Woolsey: "Electricity is Cheaper Energy than Oil" |

Up on the roof is where R. James Woolsey preached to the choir about the benefits of 'going electric'.
Chrysler's electric Dodge EV and the electric car that changed our perception of green, the Tesla Roadster, may have more in common than you think. | | |
Dear Village People,
When Village Energy was invited to join the board of PLUG IN America (PIA) at Chris Paine's home in Culver City for an EVening of celebration and support for Electric Vehicles, we jumped at the chance; especially when we knew we would be part of a fully charged, history-making EVent with special guest speakers, Chelsea Sexton, Chris Paine, Dan Neil, (Pulitzer Prize-Winning L.A. Times Automotive Writer), and R. James Woolsey, (Former Director of the CIA). The food, libations, lively music and exclusive gathering of gung-ho EV supporters was only enhanced with the arrival of TESLA ONE (the First Production Tesla Roadster off the Line), and with the surprise appearance of the latest version of GM's concept EV, the Chevy VOLT (click for pix). |

TESLA ONE |
Arrestingly beautiful, super sleek, sporty, sexy, and electric - Party-goers arriving early were treated to a chance to be up close and personal with the ultimate dream car that makes the juices flow and offers well-heeled drivers the perfect opportunity to break free from their oil-addiction. Tesla's first production electric roadster revealed all of the recent refinements, including a new and more powerful drive-train. Click for more cool party pix |

Chevy VOLT |
Party 'gate-crashers' have a reputation for spoiling things, but in this case EVeryone agreed, GM's latest concept EV was looking good, and added even more pzazz to the already electrifying EVent. We got some exclusive shots of the Chevy VOLT for your viewing pleasure. The irony of GM participating in a party organized by Who Killed the Electric Car? filmaker, Chris Paine did not go unnoticed.

Fawning Hollywood celebrities, Linda Nicoles, Alexandra Paul, Colette Divine, Reverend Gadget and others (... AC Propulsion (2 E-Boxes), Electrorides ( ZeroTruck & EV Mini Cooper), each one at the AltCar Expo giving rides and talking to people until 6pm), putting their money where their mouths were by supporting PIA in lots of practical ways, including a silent auction, membership drive, personal endorsement, converting Porsche Speedsters and Camaro SS's, etc., etc.. Tell Automakers "We want plug-in hybrids!" Prove to the Automakers that there is demand for plug-in cars. PLUG IN AMERICA
