To the Editor:
I read with amusement, fascination, horror and then sheer amazement Larry Chalk’s column on the future of electric cars (“With Electric Cars We’re in for a Shock,” 7/13). I am guessing he may be a part-time lobbyist for the oil and gas industry. His points raised were mostly conjecture and involved a number of “what if the neighbor charges his new truck and the whole block dims” examples.
His arguments parallel the group that were against the first foul-smelling, loud, unreliable Model T’s.
