Comment
The California ZEV Mandate of the late 90's prompted major
automakers to develope electric vehicles.  The delay of ZEV
requirments in that law in 2003 caused the US great harm!  EV's
development and production was halted and exhisting EV's were
crushed.  If the US now had five years of EV's available, we would
be much better prepared for the current oil crises.  The weakened
ZEV Mandate has cost the US people and the US economy dearly!  Do
not repeat your 2003 mistake!

I do not live in California.  I live in North Carolina.  But what
California does with regard to electric vehicles and plug-in
hybrid vehicles greatly affects the rest of the US.  For that
reason I am very interesting is urging you to stick to the current
ZEV timetable.
