  Chevy Volt - 230 mpg Yeah right

Ken, you are probably too young to remeber the wind up toy cars. But don't worry, the Fred Flintstone powered car is next.
I do agree, who is the nuckle head who thinks of a MPG with electric but since Cap and Trade and the cost of electricty is expected to about triple it might be gas will cost less for the up to 40 mile per day drive.
Wonder how the cabin is heated?

Wonder if there is a way to produce energy from radio signals of sufficient amount to power anything?

And then there is the ROAD TAX issue in all this conversation. So with the electric car there is no way to tax it's fuel so they now must have the system some in the current Fed Admin want to track all driving for each vechile. So how do you say big brother is watching you more and more and well what does it matter, he will be living with us by then.

I believe we need to just go back to horses and mules. They generate heat (will leave it to greater minds to heat the cabin with it), they can mow your yard so no energy wasted to do that. Oh, they produce pollution also!! But look one of those is fertlizer to grow the grass to power them to produce more fertlier to grow more grass. Puts a new twist on one of my favorite TV shows..."Ice Road Mule Skinners".

Frank, how many pages do you think it will take the Government to state the tax code on that 50 cents per bushel?
