Some people reuse old yogurt containers. Ken Norwick reuses old cars. A year ago, Norwick rescued a weather-beaten 1996 Saturn four-door sedan, gutted it, and reinvented it as an electric vehicle (EV). That makes him one of a growing group of EV enthusiasts around the world who could not or would not wait for the auto industry to mass-produce cars that emit no pollution and so took matters into their own hands. In this week's diary, Norwick recounts the joys (and occasional hassles) of living and commuting with an electric vehicle, only on the Grist Magazine website.
