    My wife keeps hinting about an electric vehicle. Then I ask her if she really knows what I do for a living.

    BTW, I bet they wouldnt let me plug it in at work.

    I think that they are putting the cart before the horse. California has yearly rolling black outs or brown outs and look what happened in Texas this last winter.
