I'm on TV!
Jan. 4th, 2024 08:55 pmI was interviewed for a short segment of local news about electric vehicle charging. They then didn't use any of my soundbites, but only some B roll bits with me in my car. But, hey, it's seven seconds of fame.

If you watch the video (only a minute and a half), here are my appearances:
0:34 - my car pulling into a parking space
0:55 - my hand demonstrating the plugs on the car
1:02 - front+side view of me driving my car
I think the reason they didn't include any of my soundbites is I was too upbeat on how the Nissan leaf is a fine car even if its fast charging mechanism is being phased out. The reason I was there at all is they wanted a Nissan leaf. We got contacted by the Electric Auto Association after the reporter contacted them for the story.
So it's fun, people will wonder about my bumper stickers, and maybe they will think my license plate is awesome. Unfortunately, I couldn't get a screenshot that did not include the "play" button. Maybe somebody else would know how to extract a single frame from the embedded video, but I'm not that clever.
