US Department of Energy's State and federal incentives and Laws Here you can find tax incentives for your EV, NEV, and LEV. Includes many links for states laws regarding the use of NEVs and LEVs. Essentially, there is not a lot of incentives for LEVs (they are not as highly priced as the EVs), but check your state to be sure - states vary dramatically in their friendliness towards the use of NEVs and LEVs. http://www.afdc.energy.gov/afdc/incentives_laws.html Find a Charging Station near you: http://www.afdc.energy.gov/afdc/fuels/electricity_locations.html General Electric Motor and power Information: Direct Current, motors, and batteries explained: http://www.roymech.co.uk/Related/Electrics/Electrics_Direct_Current.html Batteries, past and present.

The Bicycle Craze of the Late 1800s

In the America of 1867 most people got around by on horse or on foot. That was the year that the first factory-produced bicycles arrived on American shores from Europe. Though the first high-wheeled "Ordinaries" were quite expensive, costing about $100-150 (at a time when median annual incomes hovered around $450), they were destined to become the rage. The appeal of speed was strong, and bicycles offered mobility to young people and to women, an unprecedented revolution in social freedom.
