So. Why in the hell don't you move?

Hurricanes where I live are very rare, until the four hit in one year, we had not had a direct hit since 1968 and that was only a light 3.

But I see the oil companies buying this invention up so that it could never be duplicated...

Very interesting. Did you read the other article linked at the bottom?

I'm going to buy stock in salt water.

...by using a machine that requires more energy than it produces just like the other method people keep banking on that uses water to produce fuel, electrolysis.

Filling a test tube with salt water from a canal in his back yard, Kanzius placed the tube and a paper towel in the machine and turned it on. Suddenly, the paper towel ignited, lighting up the tube like it was a wax candle.
Backyard canal? Remember the Cuyahoga River fire?

I just found these Mt. Evans pictures while cleaning my hard drive: goats and whistlepig.

Both pictures were taken right along the road that goes to the top of Mt. Evans, somewhere around 14,000 feet ASL.

Wild. I just commented about these on the other thread.

Ya I drive my L4 mini almost all the time but I still need my stake body dually a dozen or so times a year.

A minivan is a better bet. You essentially can't beat them for semi secure cargo carrying in a small relatively decent fuel economy package.

Undertoad? Drive a soccer mom minivan? Oh, the humanity!

Undertoad 08-10-2007 09:20 AM
Naw, I wouldn't mind getting a beater soccer mom van just to haul stuff around, but then I would have to have a regular car for daily driving.

mitheral 08-17-2007 08:46 PM
The key is too not get a soccer mom minivan. Something that say runs 13s.
