Bagelhole1 (http://bagelhole.hypermart.net/), under construction,
calls for collaborators, globally, to share ideas as to the best ways
(design, mediums,etc) we can think of to build a bus for about 50
people, that is a hybrid, run both by pedal power and electrical
(generated by the pedal power and the turbine on top), equipped with
sail. There would be a driver who steers, changes gears, and brakes.
Music, perhaps, to inspire the pedal/passengers, maybe made from
bamboo partially. All passengers ride/pedal for free, of course.
Electric kicks in, when there are not enough pedal/riders.

Every city could have such a bus to bring attention to people to aid
in soliciting low-tech, homemade style ideas for self-sustainability,
thinking in terms of small neighborhoods, in mutual co-operation with
each other, as a way to really kick off community contingency
preparation, globally. This needs to be done very quickly. So please
heed, if you hear the call, this post and come up with some good ideas
to submit and/or post this as appropriately as you can, to widen the
scope, please.

Finally, this could be viewed,in addition to the above, as our first
real exorcise in global collaboration, maybe.
