 launched their Roadster electric car on a  run from Los Angeles to the 
 Detroit auto show opening on January 8, 2010. Tesla hopes long car trip

 Race?\nhttp://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/12/15/BUBU1B45AM.DTL\nThe 
 question is why at the same time would they want to build a “green” car 
 assembly plant at a toxic dump site?  Is this car race going off the cliff 
 for Tesla?\n\n\nThe California Coalition For Workers Memorial Day and the 
 Peninsula Raging Grannies will be having a press/education/musical  event 
 in conjunction with the Detroit Auto Show which opens in Detroit on January 
 8, 2009.\nTesla management and the Google major stake holders Larry Page 
 and Sergey Brin along with former owner of Paypal Elon Musk are moving 
 ahead with plans to build a “green” auto assembly plant at the toxic 
 downey dump site in southern California where hundreds of workers have been 
 sickened.\nThey have also  received a $465 million loan from the Obama 
 Department of Energy DOE to build the non-union assembly auto plant. Why 
 would these billionaire owners need a US government loan to build a green 
 electric car plant if they believe in this product?\nThe SF peninsula based 
 Raging Grannies are active supporters of “green” technology and 
 electric cars but do not believe that Tesla should be building or 
 considering to build such a site at a former Super Fund toxic dump site 
 where IATSE movie propmakers and SEIU Kaiser workers have become sickened. 
 The site owner and toxic developer Stuart Lichter who owns IRG and toxic 
 dump sites around the country recently lost a SLAPP suit in which he 
 charged the injured workers and advocates had slandered him and his 
 business. Has Tesla learned the results of this suit of Stuart Lichter to 
 cover up the deadly dangers at the toxic dump site?\nIATSE Local 44 movie 
 propmaker Steve Basile visited the world headquarters of Tesla in San 
 Carlos on December 9, 2009 and was told by Tesla Vice President for 
 communications Ricardo Reyes that they   were concerned and would make 
 arrangements to meet with the workers.\nInstead Reyes and Tesla have 
 refused to return email and calls from the injured movie workers at the 
 Downey site.\nhttp://blip.tv/file/2979892\n\nCalifornia Coalition For
