    I can't wait for NASCAR to turn into  Prius vs Volt races.  Those electrical engineers in the pit crew can probably jack up the top speed to a boggling 100 mph!  Every dozen laps the cars will have to pit for a complete battery swap.  That'll be 10 minutes of pure excitement!  Good times are ahead of us fellas!  NASCAR fans are in for a treat!!
    You're thinking Prius or Volt when you should be thinking.... TESLA!


    I'd drive that.

    We are confusing facts, science and government policy which are incompatible.

  • Damn!  Propane burning BBQs?  Its a good thing we have the EPA to seek out these environmental WMDs.  I woulda thought that China/India etc are generating a vast amount of greenhouse gases, but silly me, its gas grills.

    Yes they are. I really love that Tesla. Got to sit in one for a few minutes at the monthly Caffeine and Octane car show. Super nice.

    I'm not concerned about my lifetime, but the lifetime of my grandchildren. They already owe the Federal Government $150,000 at birth with the ballooning trillions in Government spending & debt.
    Geez, everyone has their hand open for another handout. 
    What happens when the takers outnumber the taxpayers? 
    The taxpayers will run out of money, sooner than some are willing to acknowledge.
    There is some irony in railing against the EPA over concerns about the world your grandchildren will inherit.  
    Glad I'm not the only one to notice that. :)

    I thought all BGE owners were members of the "Green" party! :)

    My rule of thumb, never trust the Government, if that can find a way to make your life more miserable and make you pay for that misery, they will.
