I point these things out all the time to the "renewables are enough" people and now they have a new mantra. Two words: Smart Grid.

Of course, they have no idea what that means. And when I point out that you need a grid in the first place to be "smart" with, they usually mumble something about "wind" and "solar", and call me some kind of foul-mouthed name. Then again, these are people like the one who told me he didn't nee a second electric car to use while the first was being recharged. He'd put solar panels on his garage roof and recharge his one electric car overnight, and that's he he'd be "grid-free".

I want my own mini nuke so I can be grid free as well

Seriously? Good Grief.

We have incessant commercials for smart grid. They are IBM commercials so you know they see a bonanza in those huge networks of electrical usage monitors and controls. I like how these clones copy 0bama's mantra of doing things "smarter" What a bunch of money grubbing phonies. That moron Hillary also claimed she would have a "smart" foreign policy.....but instead she FUBARED all kinds of simple things same as 0bongo FUBARED bowing to the Nippon Emperor. All phony baloney rhetoric and self promotion
