Han Solo. I'm captain of the Millennium Falcon. Chewie here tells me you're lookin' for 26 racks plus eight 40 amp drops?
Obi-Wan: Yes indeed, if it's a cool ship.
Han Solo: Cool ship? You've never heard of the Millennium Falcon?
Obi-Wan: Should I have?
Han Solo: It's the ship that made the Kessel Run at less than twelve degrees. I've out-chilled Liebert refrigerators. Not the local bulk chillers mind you, I'm talking about the big water-fed units now. She's cool enough for you old man. What's the cargo?
Obi-Wan: Only bladecenters. Plus two droids... and no questions asked.
Han Solo: What is it? Some kind of torrent tracker?
Obi-Wan: Let's just say we'd like to avoid any American entanglements.
It is not a modern electric car in the frame of a Datsun. It is a Datsun 1200 with the motor and mount brackets removed. It's a dana rear axle with the diff retrofitted to the electric motor. The linkage is probably not Datsun, nor is the rear axle, but fuck all - every muscle car running the street pre-1975 is running a Dana axle, I don't hear them called anything but what they are. His seats, his suspension and his frame are all original Datsun parts.
On the skid pad, it would come down to weight distribution and the suspension settings. The battery packs make the car rear-heavy, which is why is followers usually mount the electric motor in the block harness, since it's the next heaviest thing and they have to retrofit it to the diff.
John in his videos seems to indicate he can go about 200 miles on one charge at highway speeds. And it takes 4 hours using 230V@30A to re-charge. Perfect? No. A good start, though.
That is some fancy math you got there, despite much of it being a false dichotomy. Fancy, though.
John charges his car in 4 hours using 230V@30A. He gets about 200 miles out of that, provided he doesn't let the car stand for a week on end without using it.
End of story. You take into account his weight, the fact that car weighs half as much as a volt, etc etc. You're the math whiz. He charges it at the end of this video.
Look, this pie in the sky shit is bull. I appreciate R&D much more than most, but we're not going to start chaining carbon atoms on the fly anytime soon, any more than we are just around the corner from inventing the battery that powers Iron Man's suit.
Let's focus on the here and now. A guy named John Wayland who works for Dow Kokam built a 10 second car from LiON batteries, and is now going around to America's drag strips and laying waste to Corvettes and Nissan GTRs in his 1960s Datsun 1200. And when I mean laying waste, I mean a beatdown. Take a look at this video:
This is what we should be looking at. Building a power infrastructure that makes 208 twist locks as easy to get to as gas stations. Or converting gas stations to have a nice 200W 20Amp at every pump. Not this crap.
Studies showed that male rats with Italian sports cars and gold chains, were 40% more likely to score with the most desirable female rats. This effect, deemed the "Mook Effect", was present in all test cases.
Those rats that had contributed to the Linux kernel fared the worst.
He stole her nude pics during a webex session, got her to send him a laptop in the mail, and then set up a website domain calling her - SPECIFICALLY - a bitch.
He spent every cent he had, and went into deep deep debt, trying to keep out of jail for a prosecution orchestrated by RSA as a political favor payback by the US government.
Marcus is something of a muckracker. At one time, he was in charge of whitehouse.gov website security, and has at times been incredibly critical of the US Gov - see his book The Myth of Homeland Security in which I think he rips every major division of federal government (but especially the DHS) a new asshole.
As such, many beltway types have tuned Marcus out. He's almost always right, but he goes about telling us the problems in the most confrontational manner possible.
If Verizon can find the identities of the investigators who did it, they will prosecute them. They have a few IP addresses, but it hasn't resulted in any names.
Corporate espionage types do a better job of covering their tracks than David Kernell. He was sloppy, now he's going to federal pound-you-in-the-ass prison.

So when things go all The Road on us, you know, and you're running from the zombie skinheads who want to eat you, then you aren't weighed down, and after you stop running, you can pull it out and try and find other, more sane, survivors.
The school system in Michigan, with it's devastated tax base, has become so horrific that the University of Michigan is working towards becoming totally private, using Penn as the school to model itself against. Once it does so, in-state admissions will drop to probably below 2-3% of all students admitted. The Chinese will increase the number of students they send to Ann Arbor from 15% of all undergrads to over a quarter.
Daley looks across the lake and sees what's happening to Michigan and Ohio. Like his father before him, who saved Chicago from becoming Cleveland (where it was headed) by making it a financial and banking hub, Daley knows he's got to do something to save Chicago. DePaul and Northwestern and others see the quality of students getting worse and worse every year, and they haven't developed a pipeline of foreign students like Umich has.
The whole city suffers from a workforce that is under-educated, especially in tech. He looks up to Minnesota, where high state taxes have helped keep Minnesota public schools top notch and he starts thinking like a Democrat, or more accurately: like a sane person. Public schools either continue to wilt under a dwindling tax base, or he finds the revenue to pump up the school system. CPS are some of the worst in the nation, worse than even LA or NYC, so that's pretty abysmal. He knows he has to change course, and avoid living in a state where U of I has to consider going private by 2030. Umich will be private by 2020.
So, if Christine Varney - who is making some noise that she MIGHT just stick her boot up Verizon's behind - actually starts filing stuff and pushing Congress to back her - you would support that? You would support an Obama administration pushing for that?
When the big guys (AT&T and Verizon) killed the Northpoints and the Rhythms of the world, because they froze them out of co-lo arrangements, and made access to CO's as difficult and as painful as possible, and used lobbyists to push for legal changes and litigated like hell.
And in 2005, when MCI and Verizon merged, and the NY PSC said "ok, well at least allow naked DSL to our citizens:, you know all Seidenberg did was extend and pretend, just wait out the 30-day memory of the American press and public, then just set about killing competition again. (Source: http://www.informationweek.com/news/global-cio/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=165700989)
Verizon and FIOS will give it to you sideways, and you will smile and like it. Because, you didn't do anything to fight the mergers, call your congressperson, get out there and stop market consolidation when it was clearly headed this way in 2005. Maybe you were too busy playing Everquest, but all I know is that the efforts I put to write letters were up against an onslaught of Verizon lobbyists and attorneys. And guess who won?
After health care, the teabaggers would go apeshit if the US-DOJ Antitrust stepped in and forced another set of breakups in telecom. But, in truth, it's what needs to happen to get back options as a consumer. Read it and weep.

I'm no fan of Yamhead, his Perma-Bear status is a problem, but he does call out the systemic problems and the systemic FRAUD in the market correctly.
