On https://www.irishtimes.com/news/offbeat/german-nudist-chases-wild-boar-that-stole-laptop-at-berlin-lake-1.4325697?localLinksEnabled=false, I understand the wild boars newspaper has an account of a bare attack!
On the PEI newsfeed article, https://www.princeedwardisland.ca/en/news/province-partners-with-safe-drivers-pei-so-people-can-try-out-an-electric-vehicle, we see PEI is hosting EV tryouts so people can tell an EV would work for themselves. If you work and live on the island, this has to be a winner! But I wonder if the grid must be upgraded for the number of charging stations that start up every evening. The drives would be short compared to the 200-mile (320 km) range, but even short charging cycles could overload the grid. The article doesn’t look at this, but I wonder what people’s thoughts are!
