What is your goal?
My goal is to have the privilege of enlightening people to alternative energies - to help our planet by reducing pollution, to help our fellow citizens to save money, and personally, to make a living by helping the environment.

What is the point?
Our planet is not doomed, and we are not doomed to paying high energy costs. By taking a few steps in the right direction now, we'll all have better lives now and in the future.

Are you really a hippie?
That depends on your definition of 'hippie', I suppose. I'm somewhat of an environmentalist, and a pacifist, and I'm a big fan of love and peace. I have a passion for Volkswagens and alternative energies. I'm also a vegetarian and conscious of my health. But I suppose I'm more of a modern hippie because I live in a modern house, dress like the average guy (no socks and sandals here!), and I'm not at all into things that hurt you, like smoking, drinking, or any other recreational 'medicines' - so rest assured, no revenues will be wasted on such silly things! Oh and let me know if you're ever in town - I'd be delighted to meet over a cup of (organic free-trade decaf) coffee and share a hug!
