Are you in Oregon? There are 177 charging stations in the Eugene area. Eugene, Oregon EV Charging Stations | PlugShare

And where are they at......., not gas stations. I know where the others are. They are in lots of places. I live here. There are no charging stations at the local "gas stations." We got one Chevron, that is out side the Eu/SP area. The rest, in city, are almost arbitrarily set up here and there. I know were they are, but if I was driving I5, how would I know. I'd have to depend on an app, on my phone or something that gave me accurate information. And that information doesn't say that the charger is in a parking garage, that you have to pay for, just to go in. Or if if that charging station was compatible with your particular EV car as to fast charging. If this is to work, then we need to have signage that here is an EV open charge station. I don't see that visually, along any major hiway we have here on the West Coast. Bad old gasoline, oh,..... I can find that with out any app. And its the same thing, same cost, if your vehicle gets near 40 MPG.

Why does it matter where they are located? If I can find out from the other side of the continent, then I'm sure they will be apparent to the people who need them. When I was traveling before the internet there were time when gas stations were hard to find; yet I never ran out of gas. I planned my trip using maps and noted where the towns were.
This site PlugShare - EV Charging Station Map - Find a place to charge seems to give the exact information you are looking for. Anybody who buys an EV should know to plan ahead; just as they had to plan ahead for gas stations 120 years ago.

Back when abortion was illegal, college girls inserted a catheter through the cervix and filled the uterus with pHisohex. It was an effective technique that did not risk bleeding. They didn't know about toxicity of hexachlorophene. I'm sure they can find a safer substitute now that dorm room abortions are coming back into style.

Most probably don't know but California just positioned itself to be the abortion capital of the United States so no need for dorm room abortions...

In California Abortions to be at no cost with no residency requirement, providers shielded from professional liability, health records effectively sealed, MD not required in first trimester as Nurse with training can perform, etc...

Ten new laws just went into affect...

The lines are being drawn quicky...

New California abortion laws set up clash with other states

Newsom signed a number of laws meant to thwart investigations from other states seeking to prosecute or penalize abortion providers and volunteers in California.

I doubt some kid scraping by in college is going to be able to afford a plane ticket to the Golden State and back. Abortions are not rocket science. Women did them all the time right there in River City. The politicians can rant and rave, but they aren't going to turn back the tide.

All they are going to do is cause more women to suffer permanent damage or die... just like in "The good old days." I've far from a proponent, but focusing on preventing unwanted pregnancies in the first place is the way to reduce abortions. Find some rapper who will write a song, making it fashionable to wrap it up.

Local hamburger joint has one of their 1960 price signs mounted on the wall. Hamburger -0.55 Cheeseburger - 0.65 fries - 0.15.

Even the 70’s a burger and shake less than a buck every Saturday on my lunch break…

Yep. And now the antiabortionists are prohibiting CONTRACEPTIVES!! I swear their only goal is to turn women into law breakers.

They certainly aren't concerned with the health and well being of people who disagree with them.

The false front wagons were home made. Not sure if the 90deg unloading forks are still available.
The ratchet jack here is in the toolshed yet, and the forks are still hung on the rafters ready to be used.
