Re: [diesel_mercedes] Re: They LIED
Boyd: Perhaps the writer was expressing the hope that technology will develop that allow him to continue driving his Mercedes diesel? Or do you believe that the availability of fuel, in the future, has nothing to do with Mercedes diesels? You may have noticed two things in the past decade or so: 1) We like to suggest, and push for, economic and trade sanctions against countries that we disagree with, or that we fear, or that have resources that compete with our own multinational corporate policy makers; 2) We are the ONLY industrialized society that likes to pretend that philosophical phantasies trump actual science. What happens if or when the rest of the world decides to sanction us (using our own model) for refusing to do anything meaningful about our continuing insistence that we have the right to pollute and cause global warming without any restraint? What happens if a concerned rest of the world cuts off our supplies of oil with which to run our beloved diesels? The development of alternative fuel sources and cleaner energy sources has a lot to do with the driving that we all love to do. Have you read any of the posts detailing my, or Nates, or Rob's or other Mercedes drivers' road trips? I want those to continue to be possible. Do you? Tom In a message dated 6/11/2012 5:08:03 P.M.

Re: [diesel_mercedes] Re: They LIED
Brad, Brad also knows that the 'retirement' income of many professors includes money paid for their book publishing and their investments in technologies that the invented and patented during their teaching tenure. He isn't stupid. He's just lying. There is a tiny percentage of teachers at any level who have large retirement incomes. Brad knows that, but he also knows what Rush has told him to say. And obeying Rush is more important than the truth. I may be in California now, but I grew up in New England and know how teachers are treated there. Tom In a message dated 6/11/2012 7:02:13 A.M.

Re: [diesel_mercedes] Re: Hemp as an oil source.
That will work if you have a warm enough place to keep the fermentation going well, and if you have a big enough supply of organic material. If you have to heat the fermentation vats then it probably won't pay. Perhaps, in some areas, it would be possible to use collected, concentrated solar to heat the fermentation vessels? Once the mirrors and lenses for solar concentration are set up, the main expense, I expect, would be cleaning the surfaces to maintain efficiency. Tom In a message dated 6/11/2012 6:46:34 A.M.

Brad,
If you're talking about college instructors, then they're known as
professors, not teachers. While many people teach in different ways,
when you say teacher, it usually refers to a K-12 school teacher. While
teachers can retire as early as 55, the percentage of retirement is
quite low, whereas if you work 30 yrs or more, and in your mid-sixties,
you can get a higher percentage of retirement, though your life

[diesel_mercedes] HA! Oil cooler line fixed in less than 2 hrs!
It took Kevin less than 2 hours to replace the lower oil cooler line! He didn't have to jack up the car or the motor. Didn't have to loosen anything extra.
Now if I had the motor shocks...he might have had to do more, but we don't have those on this motor.
On the road again! Yea! Just in time. He called on his way to work to tell me his timing chain broke on the truck! He's stuck waiting on his brother to rescue him. Good thing he's got all week to fix it!
Job hunting like crazy. Just filled out an app online for a catering manager position with Panera, one of those loooong many page deals where they ask you question after question, many are repeats. Heading out in a bit to drop off other applications. Just found out I'm on some sort of special "plan" with unemployment...they're offering any employer $2,000 if they hire me, keep me for 120 days straight and give me at least 30hrs a week! Now that should get some interest from employers! Too bad I can't get that bonus back in MY pay!

The US climate zones were re-mapped this year.
http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/environment/story/2012-01-26/USDA-climate-zone-map/52787142/1
Plants have a fantastic solar energy conversion rate. With genetic engineering, we can make varieties of plants that do even better, many times what we can do with direct conversion to electricity.
