Almost a reason to read About.com
So I got suckered. I was lured in to an About.com post by Philip Powell on the promise that I was going to get a story about Darryl Hannah's 1983 diesel El Camino that she runs on biomass. Now that's a real radical actor/environmentalist for you. But instead Powell gets to retell the history of Rudolph Diesel and forgets all about dear old Darryl. I'm actually glad to learn about Diesel, the man, but I'm really interested in Darryl Hannah's El Camino.
