You read stuff like this after almost any bad weather, don't you? Rain, snow, sleet, high winds; power lines get knocked down, transformers blow. And they're seriously talking about electric cars? Hey, bring 'em home, plug 'em in? Bunky, the power grid we've got has trouble with light bulbs. It ain't gonna do no better with cars.
Maybe you'd better keep that old mule.
