HOT PRIUS Presentation
See the MAGIC behind the PRIUS DESIGN by the Magician himself- Tomio Yamazaki, the Chief Designer of Prius II & currently CFO of Calty Design Research, Inc. will show us how they came up with the design of the Prius- 2nd Generation. He has many pictures to show of designs they considered and why and why not each was chosen. Very Interesting! Not to be missed.

Hi -

Thanks for the info. For those of us from other parts of the country, is there any chance you can video/audio tape the meeting and make it available as a podcast?

DaveinOlyWA · 01-18-2007, 11:15 AM

videotaping would be an awesome idea. would love to come, but work interferes

inventor00 · 01-18-2007, 04:28 PM

We will ask him it it is ok this time to video tape- maybe not due to confidentiality stuff. We will let you know- after Sat though. We will have tape stuff there.

Rangerdavid · 01-18-2007, 07:13 PM

Please please please , video tape would be AWSOME!!!! Wish I could go to Cali, but if someone could tape it for a post on PriusChat, that would be really really cool........

If you can get a video of the event I would gladly host the video on my web server or make a torrent or both.

Rangerdavid · 01-18-2007, 10:24 PM

excellent ! I can offer to host as well on our web server! No worries!!

Godiva · 01-18-2007, 11:48 PM

Just sent you e-mail.

I was supposed to attend a class but it's been delayed so I'm now free!

BTW if you need videocamera, LCD projector/screen or anything let me know soonest and I'll pack the car.

cwerdna · 01-19-2007, 02:27 AM

Dang! That's way too short notice and quite a drive for me (~370 miles 1 way).

I wish I could make it.

Maybe he'll come to Nor Cal sometime?

inventor00 · 01-19-2007, 05:03 PM

I doubt it about NorCal.

He has only spoken one other time at a Asian type University for Green Day. He rarely comes out.....

Or in other words- catch it while you can!
