Beautiful Gas Station
This video shows a beautiful gas station that is not quite open. Everyday, utilitarian buildings don't have to be ugly. So hey, you developers out there, more of this, and fewer boring boxes, okay? And thank you, BP, for putting some thought, art and money into this building. I appreciate it.

We are experiencing technical difficulties; please stand by.
Exactly. My video guy is at the awards, but he should be back soon.
ALTHOUGH THE CLIP IS SHORT AND AS THE.... ANONY'MOUSE' EXPRESSES THE TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES, I WOULD SAY IT IS A POSITIVE VIEWING OF WHAT TO EXPECT IN THE FUTURE. OF COURSE THE TERM 'BP' IS EXACTLY WHAT IT MEANS.......(THAT'S WHY I AM INVESTED IN THIS FIELD) SLIGHTLY MOLDING THE PERCEPTION OF WHAT WE CAN EXPECT TO BE THE NORM IN LESS THAN A DECADE.
IMAGINE IF YOU WILL THE IDEA OF PULLING UP TO THE PUMP AND YOU DON'T EVEN GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE. A ROBOTIC ARM WILL ELECTRONICALLY GUIDE ITSELF TO THE FUELING RECEPTICLE AND FILL YOU UP IN UNDER A MINUTE.
THIS IS THE SAME IDEA OF WHAT THEY CALL ...'HYBRID', COME ON NOW, WE'RE NOT THAT PRIMATIVE. WHAT THEY ARE REALLY SAYING IS ~~~ WAIT TILL YOU SEE WHAT IS NEXT. (LIKE I SAID, ALREADY INVESTED, SINCE 1998)
I DIG THE SENSE OF MAKING THE VISIT TO THE STATION MORE APPEALING BUT WHAT THIS REALLY SHOWS IS THAT WE ARE MUCH CLOSER NOW (THAN NEARLY A DECADE AGO) TO INTRODUCING THE PERMANENT INFASTRUCTURE ELIMINTAING GAS. HYDROGEN IS THE FUEL OF THE FUTURE AS IT IS ALREADY IN MANY PRACTICLE USES TODAY.
I CAN'T BELEIVE THAT OUR CITY WITH ITS WORLD WIDE LEADERSHIP IN ADVANCEMENTS IS STILL BEHIND IN A STATE ACCEPTED EVOLUTION IN THE CALIFORNIA FUEL CELL PARTNERSHIP THAT OTHER CITIES ALREADY IMPLEMENT. (PALM SPRINGS, SILICON VALLEY, AND OTHERS) WE NEED TO PRESS THE ISSUE THAT WE AS RESIDENTS WANT A CLEANER ENVIORNMENT NOT ONLY FOR OURSELVES, BUT FOR THOSE OF OUR DECENDANTS IN THE DECADES TO COME.
GREAT STORY, NOW IS THE TIME TO MOTIVATE THESE BUSINESSES TO PROVIDE BETTER THAN WHAT THEY ARE GIVING US NOW. WHY THE DELAY? OH YEA......WAR MAKES MONEY.
2008 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, I SAY, "JACK FOR PRESIDENT"
ANYONY OTHER THAN BUSH.....JACK IN THE BOX MIGHT DO BETTER. I SAID IT FIRST.

The technical difficulties were from earlier. The link was there, but you couldn't see anything. It takes You Tube a while to load, I guess.
The design looks Gehry-esque, huh?
Who is the idiot with the CAPS? Must be another LAUSD grad.
