(This is perfectly practical for people who own kayaks/canoes... Load
your boat and head to an island. Will they find you there?)

I've never thought I'd be asking such a loaded question:

(I quote)

My idea of “Living Off the Grid” is a return to a local economy that
has been destroyed by Big Box retailers and world-wide travel. If the
economy continues down it’s current path, I may just get my wish. I
would like to see an economy where the price to the environment is
more reflective of the price tag the consumer sees. I think a lot of
people have a delusion of living off their own sweat and work by
themselves. This is not realistic. Humans are meant to live in groups
and work together. We should use the existing infrastructure but not
rely on it so much as we do today.

Now, assume this community is South Beach. We install some windmills
in South Pointe, backed up by solar panels, and we are off the grid!
Don't call me Quixotic. Those technologies are perfectly practical,
the sun is there, the wind is there, and the giant (the electric power
monopoly) is there. We already have the bikes, so we are ready to dump
our vehicles and move on. Mine is ready to junk.
