      From: ScottW48@hotmail.com              US Secretary of Energy and her team embarked on a road trip to promote       electric vehicles.              The caravan of electric vehicles heading from Charlotte to Memphis over the       course of four days hit a snag in Grovestown, Georgia. The group was planning       a quick charge when they realized there wouldn't be enough electric vehicle       chargers to go around        since one was broken and the others were in use, NPR reported.               So an employee from the Department of Energy tried to save one of the spots       using a gas-powered car.              It was a sweltering day and the move didn't go over well with a family that       was also waiting for a charging spot. The situation escalated to the point       that the family, driving with a baby in their car, called the police, who       didn't have the authority to        act because blocking an EV charging spot with a gas-power car isn't illegal in       Georgia, NPR reported.        (end snip)              So lets point out a couple of key points. The e-caravan had a gas vehicle       escort. And when things went south....they decided they were too important       to wait their turn like normal people.              Typical dems. Wanna bet they flew back to DC?              ScottW              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
