Electrify America - It's at least possible. There are about 225k miles
of freeways and national highways. If you were to put a charge station
every 30 miles, that would be approx 7500 stations. A big number but at
least tangible.

In my opinion, the way to speed this up is to offer cheap or interest
free loans to businesses (e.g. gas stations) on these routes so that
they can put the L3 chargers in right away and pay them back over time.

I still say put in 110v outlets on all the curbs like up north. No need for an
EVSE at all.
I was very pleasantly surprised on a trip to Alberta and there abouts. I found
"Destination" charging as far north as Fort St John. And charged at two other
hotels from block heater outlets. I found one very good one that gave me 12 amps all
night long; another, only 9 amps.
I did not notice any block heater outlets south of the border: Montana,
Wyoming, etc.
I noticed an Electrify America chademo/combo station near a SuperCharger in Lima Montana.
A LOT of money is being spent on the Electrify America thing. I wonder if it will
eventually fly? Or crash? You rarely see a SuperCharger without at least one car. Will
there be enough "other" EVs on the road to justify the Electrify America cost?
Especially in the hinterlands.
