"A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals." As it were.

Still, from that, to the subject of electrical vehicles, noting in particular that I don't have either a car(at the moment) or a license...while they might be a dead end, I can't see how I see they ARE, at the moment.
Might turn out to be, yes. Are, not so much.
And if no-one makes even the attempt to try making them into something useful, then it won't turn out well. Making them into something useful seems to be what Tesla does...that is to say, making a CAR, and not a plasticy novelty item in bright colors, not for children under three, some assembly required, etc.

Long and sorta rambly, but...
