Tesla
This is not an ad for Tesla. I just happened to see one yesterday and thought it was pretty cool. Look ma. No tailpipe! The one true all-electric car. I am not a car nut but I do appreciate when beauty and function come together in an eco-friendly manner. There are less than 1500 on the road worldwide so that makes this an Official Sighting and the first in a new category here at the language barrier. I know who he is but I scrubbed the license plate because otherwise I would feel creepy posting the photo. That said, he was one of the first software engineers at Google when it was a start-up. These days he does his own thing which includes helping develop eco-friendly projects, education and the arts. Oh and don't miss the fuzzy dice. Pure cool.

I'm a big fan of Tesla Motors. You beat me on seeing one.
I wish they weren't so expensive, but I'm glad to see a pure electric vehicle. The first hybrids were a necessary step, but I didn't like it that they almost seemed to still be primarily an internal combustion powered vehicle.
Does that mean Asha gets to slug you in the arm, or something?
Yeah! Yeah! I get to slug Don in the arm! Come on. Roy said. It's robot discourse.
Okay, okay. But I call double slugs on the first Volt.
there is a red tesla that i've seem parked on my block a couple times -- i wouldn't have noticed it, but Clark has an eye for that sort of thing.
That is a sexy mode of transport for darn sure but I don't think Mr. Lee would fit!
Roy said. It's robot discourse.
This made me LOL. I was just at someone's house and they had one of those games, those Rock'm Sock'm Robots, or whatever they were called, sitting on the coffee table.
Oh wow. Is that a word verification, or a dyslexic commenter filter? Oh well; try, try again.
Keep yer eyes peeled for a Volt, Asha. I don't think I could withstand even one slug from Don.
Double slugs!? Holy cow!!! What the hell is a Volt? Must google Volt NOW!
Don: Hey, wait a minute! A Volt is only $32 grand and change. That doesn't get double slugs. And if it does, then a Tesla gets a pounding through the floor. A Volt is somewhere in the high five category, or if you want to walk the wild side with us Liberals, a ter-rist fist bump.
Kristiana: I like to think that the red Tesla belongs to the poetry professor at Reed.
As for the Tesla, I wouldn't have known it either. Lee spotted it and knew who was driving. I was oblivious, probably grinding about how not enough birds are visiting the Bird Park these days when he pointed it out.
Kimberlee: the neat thing is there is undoubtedly tons of leg room in a Tesla. It's low to the ground though so you'd have to do a squat every time you got in or out but hey...
