My family and I were walking in down town Binghamton on Friday night. Our dinner destination was 0.6 miles from our first stop, so not knowing the parking situation, I said let's walk. On the way back we passed a kind of old shack that actually has some machine shops in it and has signage about electric cars or something. But anyway on the side of the building was a Free Hookup to charge your electric car! LOL. Those guys are so 'green' they are giving away their coal-fired-plant-generated-clean-electricity to anyone who has a government-tax-subsidized-electric-car.

Perhaps if the US government ever lets the US install more NUCLEAR power plants then electric cars would make sense. The fact remains that Gasoline/Oil are much more efficient. The infrastructure is in place EVERYWHERE on the planet, and every time we burn a barrel of oil, someone finds 100 more somewhere on the planet. We have plenty.
