Meet AMBROSIA, one of GITCHI MANITOU's HELPERS.AMBROSIA tells the story of the BEGINNING. In the BEGINNING, GITCHI MANITOU created the EARTH in which we live.First GITCHI MANITOU created the CREATURES of LIGHTS, MOUNTAINS, TREES, FISH, BIRDS, and MAMMALS. At this time GITCHI MANITOU also created the SHIRES of EDEN, AGARTHA, ATLANTIS, SHAMBHALA, AZTLAN, and CAMELOT.Over time, the CREATURES start to forget about the SHIRES so GITCHI MANITOU creates the TRAIN to take them to the SHIRES so they can better remember them.AMBROSIA is a marvelous story teller, telling all about the CREATURES and the other HELPERS. Besides loving to talk, AMBROSIA also loves to eat and interrupts the story from time to time to talk about what they're eating right then.Some more memorable quotes: FISH also came in a variety of styles, but it wasn't as interesting a variety as with TREES. I'm just saying, personally, I don't think three really counts as variety. FISH might argue that point, but I don't think they have a strong case.Ah, lunch time! Sanjits is it? Surprise, surprise!You could be so kind as to pass me one of them, pretty please.And some mayonnaise.And some mustard.No, I'm not eating two sanjits. I'm eating one double-decker sanjit.Now, where was I? Oh yes. The CREATURES.Of course there's no CREATURES on this sanjit. Don't be daft! Those are my hands!Now what happened in the BEGINNING? Oh yes, I remember. No, don't remind me. I remember. It was a long time ago, it just took me a few seconds to call up that particular memory. Yes, I know, you all could tell it better. Yes, you were there too. But I'm telling this story. Somebody else can tell the next one.Rating G; Reading Level Easy 5th Grade; Longest Word: Intrinsicalitie

I call Personal Electric Vehicles IEVs. That's because people want their Electric Vehicle to be more personal. They want it to resonate with who they are (I). Can you blame them? An IEV is like your alter ego. For some people, this would be a Tesla or a Nissan Leaf. But, IEVs are more personal. That means they're typically smaller. Often they're smaller or not much bigger than the driver / rider.Ask yourself these questions. If I put wheels on my feet and added some batteries for electricity, what would I transform into? How fast would I be able to go? And, how much fun could I have getting there? That's the IEV for you. What is a Personal Electric Vehicle (IEV)? How am I defining them?#1 It's Fully Electric: I won't be including any Hybrid Vehicles which use fossil fuels.#2 It's Personal: This vehicle not only gets you around, it is the definition of who you are.#3 It's Usually for One Person: One part of whether a vehicle is personal or not, is its capacity. While personal seems to imply one person, I'm going to include vehicles which hold two.You might normally be the only person in or on your vehicle. However, every so often, you might want to or need to, take someone else along. Perhaps you never go anywhere without your BFF. So, what kind of vehicles are we talking about here? Electric Skateboards, e-bikes, Micro cars and many more. I cover IEVs that travel on the ground - on the street and off-road. I cover those that go in and under the water and those which fly. I look at vehicles which are used on the farm and in the warehouse. The best part, is that I help you create an evaluation check-list for when you buy your IEV - the personal electric vehicle that is you.
