But I don't know who Robert A is nor what is a 'Long string of calculations'.
Hydroelectric uses no gasoline, therefore an MPG rating really isn't valid.
If you were to compare the cost of the power purchased to the same energy purchased in gallons of gasoline I think that would have some relevance, however if you are speaking of artificially subsidized cheap hydroelectric this really doesn't apply to the general population as cheap hydroelectric is not common at all.
Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with hydroelectric power or EVs at all, but I just don't see any connection to cost of transportation to the public as a whole, or what most people think of as MPG.
Electric vehicles - for the whole of society that is - are not zero emission. Fossil fuels produce most of the electricity consumed by a large margin.
Care to explain the relevance? 30 years of 110000 is a sample size of.03, this is a *potentially* relevant data set, but you cannot draw conclusions without more data.
A corporation is a a group of people, these people have rights and interests.
A building is not comparable to a corporation as a building is not a legal entity, it's a building.
People use a pen, a pen has no rights. Why should it?

Truth be told I watch FNC because they have hotter chicks.
I'm happy for you both.

Sorry, I do not engage in discussion with someone whos sig states "I like to lick butts!"
Good luck with that.

Hence, we have an observation.
I'm curious what formula you use to derive 1000 mpg to a car that derives it's power from hydroelectric.
"Rights only exist for People, and as granted by them"
No. Rights are unalienable Rights, endowed to man by their Creator. Try and keep up.
Corporations are groups of people. No people, no corporation. Pretty simple really.
Screw global warming. I'm scared to death of global cooling.
Really.

The Greenland ice sheet has been there for 110,000 years. They measure for 30. Seems not very representative, but that's just me. /sarc
*And* as I stated, no people, no corporation. A building can exist by itself. I see them all over the place lately.

It's not inexorable. It seems they do not know the answer.
"Corporations aren't People." No, they are groups of people. No people, no corporation.
Well said. What I like about having work email on my phone is this, I can delete emails faster. Win win win.
Seems pretty spot on to me.
