Victor Wouk, an electrical engineer and entrepreneur who funded and developed the first full-size version of the modern hybrid car in the 1970s and continued to be an advocate for the development of automobiles powered by both electricity and gasoline, has died. He was 86. Wouk, brother of novelist Herman Wouk, died of cancer May 19 at his home in New York City, said his son Jordan. http://www.latimes.com/news/obituaries/la-...0,5794890.story
