Wow, that's pretty funny. Of all the reasons one might find to upgrade an

tripping over each other to buy one. We electricians will be backlogged

the next ten years trying to upgrade everyone's service to accommodate

What a "short sighted" statement...you must still have a V-8 in your
machine?!


Relatively speaking, the cork in a wine bottle has seen more improvement in
the last 100 years, then the electric car. No, I don't think we'll all be
running out and buying them anytime soon. And if I had a need for a V-8, I
would have a V-8
