>If you want to look at the US as a country

Did you really not understand? I suspect you did, and in the context of your previous jokes, I think you're trying to annoy me. It'd be nice if that's not true.

Is it?

I suppose if we want to look at the US as a country (pretending it's all one city with one grid), then we will continue to encourage the 20% (roughly by your numbers) that drive gasoline in the coal power areas to downgrade to coal powered EVs.

I don't think that's good. I think you're careless and destructive for supporting that.

Anyway, you're not really acknowledging very real problems with your assertions and that's not going to make for coherent discussion. There's nothing scientific about that, so I suspect you might not be interested in science.

Lost my interest. Cheers.

For others reading, I'm happy to continue scientific discussion on this topic, especially if you disagree.
