Maybe I was not clear there are no chargers just little green signs that say "Electric/Hybrid vehicles only". At Kingsway mall in Edmonton they used to be handicap spots. Also someone has to pay which ultimately is the consumer my second car is a 95 neon that gets almost 40 mpg when the motor or transmission breaks I go to the wrecking yard and buy a used one for $100 to $200. One sometimes two Sundays and it is back on the road and I take the old motor to be melted for scrap, fluids are recycled, rubber is recycled and when its time for another neon (neons are my car of choice due to parts availability and ease of repair) my old one goes the the wrecker and I get $75 a ton for the scrap. Now which is more environmentally responsible my neon or a super expensive EV that most people can not afford.

The malls/some stores around here have special parking spots for hybrid/electric cars that are closer to the entrance than the handicapped spots in some cases. Not one of the parking spots was being used last time I was at the mall. Driving an EV does not make you more worthy of a parking spot than anyone else.
And if you buy one you are going to need to hire an electrician. And if you rent or live in a condo/apartment try finding a 240v plug in the parkade. Or a landlord that will let you install one. And power in 15c a kW/h plus transmission charges 33c per kW/h.
And will probably have to stay there last week we had temperatures of -37C with wind chill of -49C. We could hardly get you dino fuel vehicles to work. 4 years ago it was -52C with no wind chill when I woke up in the morning. My fancy lion powered drills stop working at -10C and will not charge below 0C or above 30C.
It is cheap source of very good quality proteins, vitamins and minerals I put 2 spoonfulls in my orange juice in the morning. If you do eat it make sure it is the deactivated (dead) kind from the supermarket or health shop or it will start to grow in you.

A foreign country should not be able to sell goods in a country like the US (or any other) unless it follows the labour standards of the country it is selling its goods in.
If you can force people to buy something they don't want more money to you. I bought a laptop two years ago and half of the HDD was locked for Windows I did not want Windows (even though I had to pay for it) I phoned the manufacture and said I wanted access to my HDD they said we don't support installing other OS. I told them to fuck off and replaced the HDD. Last laptop acer will ever sell me.
Coding is like construction it's almost all shit and rarely done to perfection for two main reasons . Cost and time. I'm sure most would like to do an awesome job but there are bills to pay and the guy that does the almost good job for a little less money usually gets the job.
Hey you can ruin a turd. Ever been on a walk through the park and you accidentally step on a beautifully coiled piece of art some pooch left? Unfortunately you can't step on a bad joke even though they both smell.
require funds which then tend to influence the candidates in favor of those who provided the funds, which hurts the impartiality required of judges. So an appointed judge would not be influenced by his crony that appointed him? Someone can do a lot of damage in 4 years.
Courts are always right. No innocent man has ever went to jail, right? When a court backs illegal activity the court needs to be changed. Also why are judges not elected instead of appointed?
People can install every stupid piece of software out there but when it comes to browsers, oh no I can't download and install the newest version of my browser of choice. And if the computer illiterates are still using XP for much longer it is proof that HDD manufactures have done a bang up job making that old 80 GB ide drive and computer manufacturers are using quality parts. Come on people XP is over 10 years old.
Used to live in Ontario it was awesome. And I agree that veggies are better than meat. But (there goes the but) my work sometimes means that I may only get an opportunity to eat once in a 12 hr period while working in very cold weather and veggies don't cut it unfortunately. I did work for a company that gave us free pizza for lunch every Friday and they started ordering me a vegetarian pizza because I don't like eating meat (I have to chew it for a long time and it seems hard to swallow sometimes) well everyone bugged me horribly about it. Funny thing is everyone would raid the veggie pizza before I could get to it so they started ordering 6 of them every Friday and they were the first to go and the ham was always the last to go so what does that tell you.
By the by I live in Canada a single avocado costs $1 to $1.5 US . Almond milk costs $3 to $4 a litre . But I can get 3 burgers for $4.95. The free trade agreement sucks if you live in Canada. The other day I was I the local Walmart and a lady from Cali was bitching to the cashier why she had to pay 5x the price for mangoes. You guys in the US are heavily subsidised. IE when there was a propane shortage in Texas our propane went from 35 cents a litre to 75 cents a litre but the price of propane never went up in Texas . Yay for free trade . But i can't bring a carton of smokes from the US without paying duty and GST.

$255 for 780 kW/h on my last bill and the next bill is supposed the be an extra 2c per kW/h.
They do have a 110 charger as a backup so I imagine it would be slower.

Did someone ever account for the church/serial killer ratio? AC has a point.

Exactly it's the wife's fault she drove me to it. Seriously though I jest.

People are unhealthy enough as it is. I don't think your average american's body can afford to lose any more nutrients.

That's what the Nazi's said. Ignorance is your own fault not someone else's. Following orders is no excuse for doing something wrong.
