Listers,

I thought this book sounded like a good read until I read the following excerpt
on the publishers web page: "Mark turned the key on the dash, and a faint
whirring sound could be heard. He floored the accelerator a couple of times, and
then climbed out of the seat, leaving the electric motor idling."   Has anyone
ever seen an electric motor idle?  Does the author know cars?

I decided not to buy the book, even though I found the concept interesting.  I
was also irritated by the authors misleading emails, as were others on the list.
