We live in an 1800ft home. It's a little cramped from a storage front. If it had a basement it'd be perfect. I also need a shop so I can get out of the garage. That would need climate control, but I probably wouldn't keep it anywhere near what is home-comfortable.

I think Concerned wins the Climate Change argument


Arctic has enough oil to power USA for twelve years


I'm a faggot and I'll be dead by the time that reservoir's depleted and another discovered at the South pole

Why should I give a fuck about AC's grandkids, polar bears and fucking baby seals????

Hydrogen is a great energy delivery system, but you still have to generate it using electricity (where do you get the electricity)

The short answer to that is 'nuclear power'.

Number of gas and oil wells in Lake Erie: 480.

Number of gas and oil wells on US side of Lake Erie: 0.

I know you don't like Lomborg's take on climate science, but is there anything you actually disagree with him about, factually?

7611. thoughtful - 7/28/2008 6:39:09 PM

w or w/out nuclear power, electricity generation is far more efficient than internal combustion engines so even with using current technologies, we're better off with electric cars.

This is nothing to feel righteous about.

Makes good pothole filler when hit by another vehicle, too.

Acceleration: 0 - 43mph: 14 seconds

Top Speed: 65mph

Sounds fine to me. If they start selling these little suckers in Yurrup, they'll sink four or five auto makers... who have been conspiring to keep the price of an entry-level car up to 8000 euros or so.

Wow! I hope that one works out. It could save us from self-immolation.

7620. concerned - 8/1/2008 6:01:25 PM

I've already read about this. Interesting that there's no mention that it exceeds the maximum 50% efficiency of electrolysis, which suggests, given the general adulatory tone of this puff piece, that it doesn't. That's a lot of wasted energy.

7621. concerned - 8/1/2008 6:02:22 PM

It could save us from self-immolation.

Care to explain your reasoning?
