Re: Lotus Eco Elise: Solar-powered Sports Car Really Is Dope

The car looks great. A fine example of what can be done with hemp. On the other hand the authors lack of knowledge about Hemp is lacking.

See those brown bits on the car? That's foliage, that is. And not just any foliage -- it's pressed hemp. Yes, hemp -- what you make cannabis from. We've no idea if this car's designers had ingested some kind of 'hemp' when they came up with the concept of a car made of ganja, but on closer inspection it's actually not a bad idea.
You don't make Cannabis from Hemp.
If they did ingest Hemp the gained many health benefits but no buzz.

If you don't mind sitting in a cockpit surrounded by what could just as easily have been marijuana, and don't mind being constantly pulled over by police with sniffer dogs, we'd recommend it.
It could not "just as easily been Marijuana".
A sniffer dog would not alert on this car.

ground-up ganja - mushed up weed - We hope the, er, higher front end doesn't upset the car's balance in any way.
While I think the author was probably trying to be funny, the misinformation bothers me. Would it be to much for him to do a little research?
