Hi Ben, 

I've put together an email highlighting a majority of the Clean Transportation offerings at The Energy Fair this year. 

I was wondering if you'd be willing to forward it along to any EV associations you are involved in or might know, or forward to your email list of contacts that might be interested?

Let me know what you think, and if you have any questions. We appreciate your help in spreading the word. Thanks!

(directions to forward the email: click forward, delete my contact information and any information you don't want included above the email. Edit the Subject line to remove the Fwd: letters)
