Re: (ET) Whisper Mow

One of the founders and engineers on this project is a friend that I 
worked with at Caterpillar.  We designed electric forklift controls from 
24V to 80Vdc.  He also worked at Kinetek designing golf cart, forklift, 
and whole variety of battery powered vehicle controls.
Bruce Nielson lives in Perry, Oh and also owns an E15.
He has 20 years experience designing motor controls and has a 'keep it 
simple' mindset.  His father owns a machine shop in Weeping Water, NE, so 
he has plenty of mechanical skills.
Just thought I would throw in a good word for Bruce.
One of the nicest and down to earth guys I know.
