Lead Acid are extremely inefficient in comparison. I understand what you're saying, but we used to race electric cars in high school off 2 lead acid batteries. The amount of R&D time in getting the most energy out of those batteries was ridiculous. I think we spent months testing just one manufacturer, then testing to see how hot we had to get them to use most of the energy. Also, the vehicles we used were less than 150lbs. and the charge would only get us up to about 40mph for 1 hour on a flat circle track. The point of the race was to go the most distance. They would rarely last longer than an hour. I couldn't imagine the banks required to make a 20min commute at 60mph.
I'm sorry, if I'm downloading porn, I would rather have it as one file, instead of risking "mixing" genres... Although, for some people, that could be interesting I suppose.
I can see just a big mess in the future... Racks collapsing under the weight of oil filled computers. Nothing but a big oily pile of gnarled metal, plastic, and electricity. Sounds like a place for OSHA to have a field day.
Exactly. As I think it is important to instill say respect, or perhaps teach more mature ways of expressing views, what a child does outside of school should have little affect to their school life. Any school (even public) is a private facility that a certain group of individuals belong to. It would be just as ridiculous if students got detention for back-talking to a parent at home.
That being said, I'm really appalled at how children are acting these days. It is very bad form for a student to bad mouth their school in any manner, unless there is evidence or cause (like students being beaten by teachers, etc...) It just seems very immature. Then again, they're children, and perhaps they need some guidelines and some lessons taught because of things they do, instead of free reign. Wake up parents, I'm not taking care of YOUR children.
Talk about free publicity, look at our posts and attention we're giving it. Not to mention the other places posting this story. It seems today, that the best way to sell an album, is to get RIAA involved....

Did you find their talent as well? They seemed to have lost it.
