no one wants any new major electric transmission lines built in their
backyard.

If quite a few people buy these cars in California, it will be interesting
to see what they do when it places a strain on their electric grid.
Neighborhood nukes?

Or for that matter if there was a concentration of these new cars in one
neighborhood anywhere. Say 3 homes all on the same electric company
transformer. Then all 3 homes get electric vehicles, and they all recharge
them at 6:00 pm when they get home on a hot summer day, and also have their
AC and everything else going full blast???

I remember the Toshiba Corporation small reactor project for Alaska. I
wonder how it's going?
