Comments on: Why I’ve Been Scarce… http://blog.newsok.com/okccentral/2010/01/25/why-ive-been-scarce/ The Oklahoman's Steve Lackmeyer covers downtown OKC brick by brick.

(Remember, we still have producing oil wells at our airport, and store-window derricks at our capital.) $15,000 buys 350 tanks full of gasoline. Instead of two novelty charging stations, we should award one lucky downtown parker, at random every day for a year, with a free tank of gas! THAT would make a better news story for OKC than some girly-man plugs!

$15,000 seems way high. Who is the manufacturer?

Does $15,000 get us charging areas for just two cars or does it buy us charging stations for a bank of cars like a gas station? If it is $15K for charging just two cars in all of downtown, I’m not sure that will be highly visible at all and we should spend the money on something more visible, but just as trend setting. However, if a charging station means we get a bank of cars that can be charged (5, 10, etc.) then it seems worth it to me.
