- program limited to 36 states (don't know if Alabama is included)
- details won't be available until Febrary

As a suggestion, it would be a good thing if we could encourage more 'buzz' about this program. We might suggest to hybrid owner/operators that "asking" is free and can help generate the type of activity we'd like to see. It is certainly OK to ask our existing insurance carriers _WHEN_ are they going to offer a hybrid discount.

I called my insurance, State Farm, today. They have not heard of anything, and said I could watch the website. I searched the website, and the only thing they were talking about is the increased electrocution hazard to rescue personal when a hybrid is involved in an accident.
