Charging the car was free but still wasn't worth the hassle. That's just my awesome opinion. Yes, it has to be practical. On the other hand, can't you get everywhere on your rock with just one charge? It's not like you're driving from Sydney to Melbourne. Not that you'd want to at the moment. |

Charging the car was free but still wasn't worth > the hassle. That's just my awesome opinion. A friend of mine bought a Tesla. It's a nice car and it is great for most of his driving needs. Last year he went kayaking up near North Bay, which is about 400 km north of us. He had to stop in Hunstville, about 140 km south of his destination to recharge and that added about an hour and a half to his trip. Then he had to make a similar recharging stop on the return trip. Last year when I went up to the French River we would have had a hard time had we had an electric car. There had been nasty wind storms through the area and there was no electricity for four days. I had a IC powered vehicle and, as per my habit, I filled up when I got there to ensure a full tank for my departure. |

People grasp at straws when looking for facts to support their opinions. A few years ago they shut down the rural Gr.6-8 school around the corner from us and built an addition on the K-5 school in town to accommodate K-8. Of course they had to change the name and they came up with Wellington Height, commemorating the famous British General and hero of the Napoleonic Wars. Some of the opponents thought it discredit his good name by raining the issue of his having been anti Semitic. Nice try, but it was the early 19th century and most people in Britain were at that time. ' |

Charging the car was free but still wasn't worth the hassle. That's just my awesome opinion. For SOME people, an electric car is the perfect solution! Like me, who lives 15min from his place of work. And I have my last day of paid orientation TOMORROW, 7A-7P, then every other weekend after that Sat/Sun 7A-7P also! And I will be getting my 100% electric Leaf back SOON! And will go back to burning/buying ZERO gasoline! John Kuthe, Climate Anarchist, Suburban Renewalist and Vegetarian |

Yes, and he also could have turned it into a hippie commune, like the one in tennessee (The Farm), and could have recruited not only students, but hundreds of other folks. Being a cannabis RN, he could have also provided both medical care and good home grown smoking dope for everyone. |

Take one for the team! If you cut them into 12 [big] servings, it's ONLY 2 pats of butter, 1 TB of coaoa, and half an egg per serving.

Double oops. I assumed that "airco" was Brit for air conditioning i.e., cooling. Heat pumps can also be used for heating too. Running an electric pump to heat stuff up is more efficient than running current through a wire to heat it up. OTOH, a piece of resistance wire is a lot cheaper than an electric motor, pump, and heat exchangers. === Okiedokie :))) |

Those are the size that most people use for outdoor gas grills and some of the teardrop trailers. I can't speak for everyone in the USA that uses propane but generally, this picture below is the type they use and this would be similar to what Sheldon has. I don't know how many pounds his holds but here's a picture of what you normally see when homes use propane for cooking and water heaters. https://i.postimg.cc/Ghx2FzY8/Propane-Tank.jpg |

We were were at a camp in Algonquin park and our next door neighbour invited us over for cocktails. He was using his Daiquiri Whacker to make them. Seriously, he had a gas powered blender.

I was just curious. School is out so I imagine they went home. With Covid, many are having on-line classes so no reason to rent a room near the school. |
