I belong to a number of forums, and they take a lot more of my time and attention than the FOT mail. There's a zillion ways to send photos or movies--the list accepts links. It's easy to upload a wad

It's not really the incentives that make it worthwhile, though they were just fine, thank you, but there are plenty of people here with $1000 per month electric bills. The main generators burn oil an

Yup. Numerous ways of making hydrogen, but all involve either natural gas or methane as a feedstock plus steam to feed the reaction, or hydrolysis, using electricity. It's just a transportable storag

The generally used rule of thumb for energy required to make gasolene is 13KWH per gallon from all sources of energy required. That's a long way from 400 watt hours, which sounds kind of silly right

Tire temperatures that you get from a hot day or autocross runs are useless for setting up suspension or determiniming appropriate tire pressure. Even tire temps on a track are relatively inaccurate
