to get past the anger and get to any real information. I gather that you like nuclear. I know something about that, and it is a longer discussion. i think your gist is we don't consider all the externalities to creating and running an electric car.

While you may have some good points, I differ that people are lying to themselves or being irresponsible. We are all trying our best to do what is right for the planet.

Try a different attitude and I'll click on the remaining links and would be happy to engage in a healthy debate and exchange of information.
