On the downside, bridges across the land will end up requiring strengthening or rebuilding due to the weight of ev's

On the plus side, once their batteries combust spontaneously, they'll melt the tarmac which will self level out and fill potholes.

Lots of those cars in Chinese fields are fully registered. I posted about that earlier. Possibly with a link.

There is a contact us link in the Amazon page about their bot so I sent them this...

When I investigated why my forum running on a small Lightsail instance had gone completely down the pan I found it was your bot overloading the server. I have put an exclusion in robots.txt for it now but rather than annoy my users another day waiting for you to pick that up I have now  excluded you via htaccess. If I remove that htaccess exclusion tomorrow will the bot's first action be to read robots.txt and go away or will I have to put up with it annoying all my users for longer?

Quite why you think Alexa would be interested in the ramblings of a bunch of geriatrics like us is entirely beyond me. Your bot seems to be about as useful as Alexa's replies. Initially I thought I was being targeted for telling the thing that reading a year old web page didn't constiture news.

Regards

Mark

I'm not holding my breath.

I've heard that there are huge fields full of registered EVs in China, that nobody wants, and of course dealers will register a few as demonstrators, so yes registrations aren't a guide to sales of new vehicles..

There are 650 in Westminster that won't laugh. They simply won't understand it.
