You need more data and less wishful thinking

Am I really wallowing in 'contrariness', as you claim...or am I just the ants at your picnic, with real world calculations.

You still haven't answered one very basic question: How do you make money on V2G?!?! What to you get paid per KWH, and who the hell pays it?

I suspect you aren't answering because you really don't know....

...and that should be your first clue that you shouldn't be making so many wild claims about the subject.

So how about it - how much will V2G pay the hapless sap who agrees to it?
