Scotty's going to show up with power converters as soon as we confiscate enough tax money to pay for it.

put electrical current in the roads You don't have to convert every vehicle to electricity right away. If you convert the majority of cars but leave the inter-city trucks on diesel you will be moving in the right direction. Ultimately more trains will be the answer to inter-city and long commute travel. I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to ride your electric car onto a train. Charge while you travel, and then drive off for the last few miles of your journey. It would be like hopping on the ferry at Seattle. TP
