Besides the Solar Carbon work, we're also working on H2 transport, storage, and fuel cells here. There's some tricky problems with H2, including storage embrittlement and dispensing. It may turn out that H2 is used as a storage medium in large underground tanks near power plants, rather than for personal transport fuel. Can take excess/off peak solar/wind production, crack water down to H2, and then burn it later when needed.
I favor electric cars as we already have electrical distribution set up. Just need to improve battery life, improve motor conversion, and of course, electrical production.
Exactly. Once all those damn police and firemen and building inspectors and food inspectors not to mention customs men, border guards, teachers, and librarians are all gone, why, this'll be a paradice on earth!
We should get rid of government and go back to the old days. My grandfather didn't need a dozen code sign offs to build his house and it's still standing 80 years later. Just think what life would be like if there weren't all these people telling everyone what to do!
None of my ex-girl friends want to know anything or have anything to do with me. At least, that's what they say each time, after I track them down again.
As long as management is focused on quarterly earnings, doesn't really matter how the company actually grows and evolves. Gotta start tying executive pay and incentives to long term growth.

We had B-52H's and KC-135A's. A few times, we got B-52G's in from Minot. An 8 engine water burn was second loudest thing I've heard, after Space Shuttle launch.

I'm sure your grammar was a nice lady too.
Can I touch your wiki?
Look for the Onion leaf.
Some professors even want to throw you out from the university for it.
Depends on how high the window is off the ground.
Didn't the Mythbusters do this with a full size plane and a giant piece of canvas?

So, if there was a way to get energy from outside the earth and use it to reform hydrocarbons...
That commie Nixon also signed in that Endangered Species Act. Who the hell is he to tell me what I can and can't hunt or what land I can develop.
I mean, just name any other president that's been as an environmentalists as Nixon?

Um, MrHanky says you're wrong. Who ya' gonna believe; your own reasoned thoughts on things or some guy with a funny name on the internet?
Slashdot is filled with hippies/gun nuts.
I am a hippie gun nut! /collect WWII side arms, have long hair and have small pottery business out in the country
Damn it! All I have is a Ti 99/4a. And an "L" stuck to my forehead.
Hey! Weren't you paying attention? If you like Apple stuff, you're wrong. And you hate Santa Claus.

At first, thought you were talking about cylon clones like in BSG.
Buck Cake?
So... if I deforest my annoying neighbor's property, he'll get hit by a meteor?
COOL!

The world started on May 25, 1977. All else before that is just clever marketing backdrop to contrast how cool Star Wars is.
I read how some companies are allowing stock options purchase but not allowing sale for executives for 5-9 years down the road.

Cats! That'll do in this stuff.

Oh, this was back in '88. I was Air Force/B-52 Crew Chief.
Actually, blasters do sound better than phasers. But phasers rock everything else.
