Denis, you are doing and excellent job! 
Nice showing, Jason -- and I hope you get some rain out that way, too!
Andrew, you went to the dentist to get lunch?? 
 for your raised tank goal!
The trip home wasn't a record but I'm particularly happy with it considering the headwind.
85F (92F heat index), 13mph headwind from the NW, overcast:
- 7.6mpk over 15.1mi --> 255.1 MPGe (Work to home)
Day Total: 7.4mpk over 29.8mi --> 248.3 MPGe
Tot. Use: 4.0 kWh
Adj. Cost: $0.61
I've a fair amount of driving to do over the next couple of days so I'll pump it up to 100% tonight -- that way I'll have enough left over that the charging tomorrow night leaves me enough for Friday.

Hence the reason I designated the dentist a "guy." As a guy married 27 years, I totally understand the risks of joking about such things and avoid it at all costs.  |

Congratulations! Keep it up. Anyone who's gone more than a few years knows it's not by accident. We just passed 10.
