Avacados give a higher yield/acre then corn.

Unless the intent was to subsidize corn farmers, corn is
about
the worst thing one could pick.

Well, that's discouraging since aircraft needs are a drop in
the
bucket.

Maybe, but we can run just about everything else on
electricity...

You mean like trucks, trains, busses and farm and construction
equipment?


Electric trucks trains and busses have been around for ages. Farm
equipment? Why not?

LOCAL trucks, LOCAL trains, and LOCAL busses, but not those hauling
crap between cities, much less across the country.

Absent the invention of Mr. Fusion, there isn't going to be any
electric powered trucks hauling carrots from Fresno to Chicago.


Maybe not, but you can have long distance electric trains, no
problem.

Other than the almost 150,000 miles of wires you would have to string,
no problem.

You sure aren't going to run them on batteries.


Who said anyone was?

Not much of an argument. Lionel can do it, surely amtrak can.

Just because something can be done is not a reason it should be
done.

And once again, Amtrak doesn't haul freight.
