Hybrid-car only repair shop

Plenty Magazine reports on a San Francisco car repair shop that works mostly on hybrid cars. The owner of Luscious Garage, Carolyn Coquillette, says that because most hybrid car owners are environmentally conscious her garage is too:
"Large plants placed around the 2,000-square-foot work area help to filter the air. The floor is made out of non-toxic concrete, and skylights line the ceiling. Many of the materials Coquillette uses are low-impact, too: The oil isn’t derived from virgin crude, rather it’s refined from oil that’s been used before. She washes parts in biodiesel and brews her own windshield solution from vinegar and water. And the list goes on."
