Another incident is when I went to the HOA for approval of my charging plug installation. It was in 2013, about a month before I took delivery of the car. They sort of made fun of me, like I was doing something stupid. They were sitting on a raised platform and I was in the "audience" area. There were like six of them (board members) and just 2-3 people sitting around me. They were like - "why go through all this trouble of an EV!", "I just bought a hybrid, and it goes vroom, and I don't have to worry about all this charging etc. It has practically zero emissions", and so on. I figured it was just ignorance, and tried to correct them a little, but it only made it worse, and they almost started making fun of me. Then I just let it be. They were older than me, and I did not want to come out as disrespectful.
