Electric vehicles are wonderful for the capabilities they have. The

a small nuclear reactor would give an electrically driven vehicle the
ability to travel long distances without having to stop every 50 miles
to recharge the battery. My concept of vehicle range is one that travels
far enough and long enough so that I must stop to empty my bladder
before the vehicle runs out of power. ^_^

North of Washington, we do that in the states, too.

Ah. The area first colonised, hence the most civilised:-)

No, idiot, the area with the densest people, like Europe.

Oh..that would be Northern Michigan, rather than the East Coast.

No, even the back-woods hicks of the UP are no match for their NE
cousins. Evidence, Mayor Doomberg.

The UP was explored and settled long before most of the Eastern states

I kinda think NY and MA were settled a bit before, though they're
still pretty unsettling places to live.

Actually..not true.

Go on... (Is that you, harry?)

But they are indeed pretty unsettling places to live.

The only places worse are IL and CA.
