9. yeah I can understand that
But for instance here in texas we have been asked to cut back on energy consumption when the temps. were over 100 degrees for a long stretch of days, because of the threat of blackouts due to lack of energy. So what happens when 50 percent of people cars are electric, how would you be able to charge them, or even worse during a hurricane or something. When Ike happened we were without power for i believe 2 weeks. Gas was difficult to come by but it was there. All I am saying is that we need to begin to work on a new Power Grid in this country. Hell that would even create some jobs lol.
