      But given that the placebo effect is hard science, doesn't that make them believe?

          So now the prices at whole foods will only be 10x what they should be? YAY!!!!! Go Amazon, GO!!!!!

          (Hopefully my sarcasm and general "fuck whole foods in their snooty ass" attitude was clear from that statement...)

                                          I'm actually impressed. When they get enough of the charging stations up and running, it'll even work well for OTR. Realistically, the farthest a driver can get in the 11 hours of driving time is 650 miles in a day (assuming they spend all day in states with a 70mph speed limit or higher.) A half-hour break to get a quick boost charge would be less time that it takes to eat lunch/dinner, and trust me, you don't want to be sitting all day anyway.
