    I wouldn't have, otherwise, but this is an opportunity that I couldn't   
    pass up; it's a perfect match for my experience and a great group of   
    people. I'm only doing it one day a week, thankfully.

    No, Electrify America, Blink and EVGo. The best luck seems to be EVGo   
    chargers at Whole Foods Grocery stores; the state of chargers   
    definitely seems to follow the overall affluence of the neighborhood.

    The 4 were gone as soon as the 12 came in. So far the new chargers are   
    working great.   
      
    We'll see how my EV with little skinny tires holds up in winter storms   
    - I may end up relenting and getting a Lexus or a Subaru Outback.
