What a load of pretentious crap. Renewable energy sources are the 
cheapest power sources around, and EV let you travel more cheaply than 
you can in a car with an internal combustion engine. If you had any kind 
of clue about engineering design, you'd be aware of that, but you are a 
right-wing twit in the Cursitor Doom and John Larkin style and lap up 
all the right-wing propganda aimed at twits like you.

Not half as amazing as Cursitor Doom, attachment to ZeroHedge or John 
Larkin's faith in Anthony Watts

If you don't know anything about science you won't realise quite how 
silly this is.
