How would you like to pay $50per yearto drive your car around? Instead of, say, a thousand dollars a year for gasoline (soon to be $2,000 a year)? The Austin City Council is considering a fifty-buck annual subscription to electric-car charging stations all over town. That's four dollars a month!
I had a new meter put in in New York City and a new upgraded fuse box about 8 years ago and it cost me $1100 dollars. Make a few calls. Nissan will put in a 220 for you as a perk. If you don't have an outlet in the garage how the hell can the band practice, Dad?
I could also maybe see Black Joe Lewis and the Honey Bears if I was to amble on by. I'm thinking about it. What's the nicest hotel in town?
The City of Austin recently announced it was thinking of removing parking spaces in the city's core business district (which includes a campus of the local community college) to 'encourage' people to use the bus system more. The City is also cutting 1,013 teacher positions in the school district in the face of a $113 million shortfall in the school district budget and will likely close several elementary campuses.
There aren’t too many things I enjoy more than bad mouthing Texas and their inhabitants but, Texas, by far, is the leading producer of wind energy in the USA.
I’m a big fan of electric vehicles and I’ve had some experience with the design of vehicle chargers. The weak spot with EVs is the battery. They’re still too expensive and the energy density doesn’t come close to gasoline. It looks like capacitors will be the where the future lies as a power source for EVs. Capacitors can be charged in minutes (if you have the current) and should last, with little degradation, for a long time. EESTOR is one company that claims to have capacitors that are energy dense enough to power vehicles but they have yet to produce anything and are very secretive. Many universities and start ups are out there working on it so hopefully someone will make a break through soon. My apologies for being so serious.
And if you were here in town you could see Willie Nelson tonight at the new, state-of-the-art Austin City Limits live theatre. High is forecast to be 76 today, highs in the low 70s this week.
Completely correct. And both have large deficits.

All the proposed closings are for 'inner city' schools that educate the brownz so there's that appeal as well.
