Culver City Car Show Lures the Locals

Expecting your standard hot rods at the Culver City Car Show? There's more than meets the eye.

George Barris' Eighth Annual “Cruisin' Back to Culver City Car Show” on Saturday featured not only classic Chevys, hot rods and even a military vehicle, but also an impressive amount of fashionistas decked out in Betty Grable-style duds and blue jeans. It was an event that reminded attendees of why Culver City is one of the hottest spots Los Angeles has to offer.

Barris’ creative fingerprint was evident Saturday morning with his many creations on display; those not familiar with his name have seen his talent as the creator of the Batmobile, the Munsters' Koach, and the Beverly Hillbillies' jalopy. More than 400 cars took over the restaurant-lined downtown Culver City, with even city employees sporting their Natural Gas Vehicles.

Maybe more to the point, where does the methane (way more powerful than CO2 as a greenhouse gas)Read More release go from the fracking process, where do the "secret"and other cancer causing chemicals go, and who pays for clean-up costs, increased healthcare costs of residents nearby, possible increased earthquake damage, etc. and where does this oil go (we can't use it--too dirty--so probably China)?

As I understand it, fracking wells "dry up" fairly quickly, which is why pressure to keepRead More drilling so urgent. Where do the jobs go after a year or so? Just a thought....
