Much of the industrial huge machines are electric operated though they are usually connected to a remote generator. And BTW, the petroleum industry is heavily subsidized plus we have fought wars over petroleum at huge expense and loss of life. We are not there yet, but I think as the technology develops, there is a good chance we will get there.

Tried to find the meaning but no success. Everyone acts like it is EV soon or walk when it is going to take generations to transition to whatever is next.

No kidding man...... If you need a really good laugh one day, just go to his profile and forum posts, it is really hard to imagine anyone that disconnected from reality.

Somehow he is Tallgrass reincarnated ..... I'd love to be a fly on the wall with Donothin, Allison, Tallgrass & Emit having a discussion, imagine the crazy ideas that meeting would produce. smile
