Before I became a geologist (way before), I was a groundskeeper at the local municipal recreational complex. The place was big, about 60 acres, so we used golf-carts to get around. The carts didn't have enough charge to go all day and it was sometimes pretty inconvenient to limp into the garage and get a fully-charged one. Sometimes these weren't available at all, if someone forgot to plug them in. The city would not buy a gasoline vehicle for us, partly on eco-wacky grounds, so we rigged one cart with a Honda portable generator, so we could re-charge as we went. It worked but I think a fleet of Hummers would have been more efficient (if they had existed then).
Sounds like a shot from a Barbara Streisand comment and/or most of the wealthy movies actors; "You people should conserve fuel, while I have soirees in my 75,000 sq. ft. house on a 900 amp service. After all, 150,000 kw a month is nothing to me when I rake in a few million a year on royalties.
Further, Babas said, "Besides, my power comes from 600 miles away and the winds head East. So I really don't give a sh!t about the "unwashed" in CA, because I am wealthier than most others in this state."
