Sorta related: I told hubby earlier today that a very innovative generation tried solar and wind power decades ago. They had windmills to power that one well to draw water into a bucket and to put water into a trough for the cattle. They also had solar powered dryers that worked as long as the sun was out and the weather was warm and dry.
The windmills had to have constant maintenance and the government didn’t like the unsightly view of the solar clothes dryer. And they both only worked intermittently. So, those creative men kept innovating until they developed electricity. Yet we still haven’t found a way to store electricity long-termed in a reliable and safe manner for reuse.
If the prior two generations couldn’t do it, I doubt the soy boys of today will make it happy. Hard times make strong men. Maybe the next generation will perfect the battery powered vehicle. However, it is not yet ready for prime time. The government needs to stop trying to force it. Their attempts to do so is destroying our nation.
