    500k dead and it’s just a fallacy and Fauci shouldn’t be concerned. Amazing.

    Why do you constantly reply to posters as if they said something that you actually said?

    Fauci was in charge of CV19, yet you act as if Trump was in charge.

    That’s rediculous. Trump disbanded the task force in charge of pandemic response. Trump was constantly spreading lies about the severity of the disease even calling it a democrat hoax. Lies that even now your posts seem to support.

    Where did I say any of that? I said the CDC and Fauci are political and, hence, incapable of providing useful medical advice. Since you insist on criticizing what I don't say, I'll stop bantering with you. It has become boring.

    Have we strayed from the original discussion of electric vehicles?

    The emphasis should be on "alternative, sustainable energy" for transportation. Electricity can be produced in any number of ways, while at the same time other energies might be employed for what moves people around. It should be embraced as an exciting and valuable challenge to engage in new ideas. The advantages of cleaner air and improved energy independence would seem more than justification for the endeavor.

    Tesla has a pickup and a simi. Ford has a pickup. Most of the other major automakers have EV trucks in the pipeline. You really need to keep up with auto news.

    For justifiable heavy work, recips and petroleum could still be part of a mix without doing too much damage. It is transporting two or three people, or only one, that takes up the major part of human transportation, and that could be done with various small, light means, starting with bicycles.

    The Tesla's use circulation to keep the batteries warm in the winter. The Leaf did not do that and those batteries died prematurely, like two years max.

    I watched a YouTube on the Tesla electric motor yesterday and it is quite the electric motor with a good design.
    Tesla is plagued by battery fires.

    Take the family out for a ride on a Bicycle? Not for me.

    My son purchased an electric fat tire bike that he simply has not ridden in the past 2 years I have lived with him.

    Biden has not stopped citizens from dying due to CV19. As he allows us all to get vaccinated, using the Trump vaccines, he will of course as a narcissist claim he did it for us.
