ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************

Intersting proposal, ask and see what happens.   Our interactive hands on
docent lead tour focuses 100% on Alternative Fuel Education.  We introduce
the technology of the Hybrids, even built an exhibit where students drive a
hybrid car using Toyota Prius 3 minute DVD and I have not been successful,
although asked many times, in obtaining a Hybrid Vehicle.
If you are successful, let me know.
thanks.
