Are any of you biodiesel innovators in California?  This might be of
interest.

Dear Truman Scholars,

If you've got an idea for clean energy and have any interest in submitting a
business proposal for how to get your idea off the ground -- and are willing
to implement your idea in California -- check out the California Clean Tech
Open (http://www.cacleantech.com).

Basically -- you can get $50,000 in cash and services to help you launch
your idea/business/project.  They have five different categories under the
umbrella of "clean energy" (Energy Efficiency, Smart Power, Renewable
Energy, Transportation, & Water Management)

Details of rules and eligibility are here:
http://www.cacleantech.com/content/CCTOEligibilityAndRulesV1.pdf

I bet at least one Truman out there has got an idea or two (or knows someone
who does)!

--Eli, Truman '05
