Car power

I'd never heard of the Petersen Automotive Museum until yesterday, but it makes sense that it's located in Los Angeles, the birthplace of car culture. There's a temporary exhibit there through mid-October called Alternative Power, which chronicles the history (and ponders the future) of vehicles powered by steam, hydrogen, electricity, biodiesel--anything but gasoline. It's encouraging that an auto museum is tackling this thorny issue... now if only they could solve L.A.'s traffic problem...
