I have been trying to petition the wife that by leaving the toilet seat up it prevents any accidental dribbling on the seat as well as when the dog drinks out of the toilet it wont soak the seat afterwards thus assuring her that the seat will always be clean and dry when she uses it. As it...

I could see that. But the caveat is that as a heavy philanthropist by nature your going to offset a lot of taxable income.

Depending on where you get your data, 40%-47% of adult households pay *ZERO* in federal taxes. Folks can hate on the rich for not paying "their fair share" of taxes but can somehow neglect how many people pay none. I have no opinion on either item as individually its rather complex, *but* if...

If it can see through soft materials such as a blanket, it can also see through clothes. Think about that for a minute. :rolleyes:

The way I see it, the hydrogen burning based engines have all the same issues as the ICE engine and possibly more so. Way way to many mechanical parts that need constant maintenance and are ultimately expensive to dig into the engine to service. When there are hundreds of $20 buried parts that...

Exactly. Sort of like Cable/Satellite TV subscriptions. The younger generation of adults have no interest in live television programming. Day old, month old streaming services are they way it works for them. My last teen at home has no clue how to even work the cable TV box or find anything...

Oh no, I like you will fight tooth and nail to keep my own Cybertruck but the transaction will still occur as new drivers (16 year olds) start driving everyday and the older folk that need transportation (safely). Soon to follow will be people that are in need of a replacement and see the cost...

I have been unsuccessfully preaching the same ideas to my ICE gearhead buddies. The *BIG* impact aside from how we individually do transportation, will be to the manufactures of vehicles. When 90% of the vehicles currently sit idle (FYI: I made that number up) and a service can replace the...

Perhaps I should have prefaced that with "IMO:" in which case it is true. =)

The reality is, once the upfront cost of EV's are on point or lower than the ICE alternative and the cost of ownership and operating is lower, ICE based vehicles are simply going to fade away. No reasonable person is going to spend more money on something that is inferior in multiple ways and...

Quicksilver is on my wavelength on so many things they wrote and I am not saying I am like him/her or he/she is like me. I agree a lot of political games and agendas are in play. If we humans are the largest problem and contributor to climate issues, its because we are simply to populous...

My gut tells me I would be more afraid of the entire thing being launched like a ping pong ball into the air after a collision only to land in some even worse spot. The only way I can rationalize its safety is to think of it as a motorcycle and not have a false sense of security thinking of it...

Love it or Hate it: There may be an opportunity for carbon based power plants in the future once EV's take a firm foothold and displace most petrol based vehicles via an offset advantage. As I (poorly) understand it, a current carbon based power plant can produce roughly 300 miles of EV range...

I would think most newer gen Tesla vehicles would even be more than 5x considering the PowerWall2 sits at 13.5kWh storage. If correct, a Tri-Motor CT could be roughly equal to 15x PowerWall 2 (at $6,500 each) units making the vehicle cheaper per kWh than equivalent PowerWall units assuming a...

I'm only 54,000ish in line so I am likely going to get the old junky style batteries in mine. =P
