what labor and the conservatives are relay scared of is the end of the 2 party system where ether they are in power or they are going to be in power. I am looking forward to there reasons to appose this as they scramble to find a explanation that dose not make them look desperate to cling on to there power.
"Exactly how is it sustainable"
it is not but it dose not have to be the histroy of man kind since he started using tools has been one of using one resorce till he finds a better one we started with fallen wood and then we learnt to chop down trees, we learnt how to dig up coal and then to mine it in deap mines we learnt how to use gas and oil , harnes wind sola and water as power sorces and redcently we have started to undertsnad how to use the power of internuclur forces as a energy sorce as long as we keep looking forward we will find new sorces of energy if we stop and start looking backwards we will und up living in caves scavign fallen wood again and dressing in amail hides
"1 barrel in 7 out" I bet if you look that ios tearms of kwh in and kwh out you get better with a nuclure plant and cedrtainley will with some of the future tech nucler.
I would be prepered to bet if we bit the bullet and went for a full on nucler stratergy we could easley out produce our current socirys energy needs but we would then have the problem of converting it inot the form we want
in short as peek oil aporces pepol will convert things to other forms of energy use (we are allready seeing that with the rise albit it slow of the electric car). or things like man made oil (using nucleur power as a feed) will become econopmicley viable the laws of supply and demand in operation
it is simple why it is called a range extender it is because the petrol moter dose not in any way drive the wheeles in all it's opertaing modes the electric moter drives the wheels with power from the battry when the battry gets low the moter then charges up the battry extending the range of the battry
it is called range extended electric to disguniguish this good tech form the silly hybrid tech we have had before where the petrol was allways going with the eletric only helping abit this is the other way round it is mainley an electric car with a pretol genrator on bord
is future proffing
you CAN genrate electricity form non focile fule sorces ware as it is very trickey to make a good car on non focile fule sorces and as car replacment times is a slow thing we should be encrouging pepol to use electric cars now so as thewre will be lots of them around when our elected lords and masters get there colitive fingers out and build us some clean nuke plants
you can it looks quite good as well they clame only 3h charging time for a full charge and 250+ miles on a full tank of petrol that compares quite favroable with my current 40 leter skoda at 300+ so if it <40 leter tank that is as good as standard cars on petrol and with the 40 mile electric buffer it looks like a very good car
I love this idar
to prove how geekey I am I went throught all my journies for the last eyar and sorted out how meny of them where over 40 miles and I have found that last year there was only 3 reasions I travles more than 40 miles in a day and I could could the amount of trips I made that where over 40 miles on the fingers of my hands (provided I grew 2 extra hands) I am still calcluating how much petrol I would have saved but I recon if I had owned this car last year I would have only had to vist a perol station about 4 times in the year
"or you've configured your device to use a default SSID in some other context"
true story
I had my computer setup to access the defult name for a netgear routers SSID "netgear" for some tests when I took it to my frends flat it automaticley conected to his nabours wifi who had left it as the defult I only relised when I got msn messages
what I want are tv shows and maby movices so I can watch them when I want for example I find a goos series half way throught I want to be able to catch up and watch the rest when I want (if I work shifts I can not watch any tv form 3pm to 12pm) P2P gives me that nothing else dose
