Yesterday, Michael Alexander of the Huntington Beach Independent called us up to ask some follow-up questions regarding the recent Global Warming Story Tour stop in downtown Huntington Beach – which is part of CA-46, represented by Dana Rohrabacher, who is being challenged by Debbie Cook in this year’s elections.

Today, I checked online, and sure enough, our article is featured prominently on the front page of the newspaper's website! You can read the full article online and check out Debbie Cook's reaction to our event in her hometown. “I like to focus on the energy side of the equation, because it’s an issue that we can all unite behind,” Cook said. Too bad she didn't come on out and see the Rolling Sunlight firsthand -- a vehicle that runs completely off of biodisel (the good kind -- used vegetable oil) and has 256 sq. ft. of solar panels on top. How's that for the energy side of the equation? Wouldn't be much of a Global Warming Story Tour if energy weren't a major part of it, eh?

As for Rep. Dana Rohrabacher? According to the article, "efforts to reach Rohrabacher for comment were unsuccessful."
