POOR STUPID hemerHOID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


He is fading into obsolescence and has not even noticed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


He MISSED the big announcement from Alberta!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Scientists there have FOUND A WAY....................................


to extract LARGE QUANTITIES of Hydrogen fuel from tar sands............................


WITHOUT producing a lot of pollution in the process!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


In the past extracting hydrogen would produce huge quantities of Methane.................................


the new process works WITHOUT producing Methane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The Scientists are now working to see if the process can operate efficiently.........................................


ON A COMMERCIAL SCALE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


If the process works on a large scale......................................


then Hydrogen fuel is the WAVE OF THE FUTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The use of hydrogen as a fuel means that the only tail pipe emissions will be WATER VAPOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


A hydrogen fueled car would have similar range to a gas car...........................................



and the same ease of refueling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And a hydrogen car would NOT suffer from the crippling deterioration that a Lithium battery suffers from!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


In short - a hydrogen powered car would have all the strengths and NONE of the limitations of electric TOY cars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



The ONE FLAW in a hydrogen fueled car- IF YOU ARE A LIE-beral......................................


is that production of hydrogen cars will KILL the LIE-beral hope....................................


of RELENTLESSLY price gouging us on electricity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Who killed the electric car???????????????????????????????/


NOBODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The electric car committed SUICIDE..........................................


after discovering how many technical limitations it had............................................


that COULD NOT BE OVERCOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Certain amount of "Electric" shouldn't do any harm!




OH FOOLISH and Joyless LIE-beral Monkey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The LIE-beral DEVIL is in the details!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


It is the whole issue of FORCING electric TOY cars on us..........................


so that LIE-berals and electrical union HOGS can have a MONOPOLY on all things electric...........................


and thus be free to PRICE GOUGE US.......................................


and CRIPPLE OUR LIVES..............................



AT WILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And that LIE-beral GREED and lust for power........................................


is POISONING ALL LIE-beral policy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



So called LIE-beral environmental policy.......................


has a LOT MORE to do with.................................


CREEPING SOCIALIST DICTATORSHIP........................


than it does with the environment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I meant limited amount, Stupid!




Oh?????????????????????


You are unable to express yourself precisely....................................


and are forced to issue corrections...........................................


but somehow I AM the stupid one................................



FOR FAILING TO INTUITIVELY GATHER YOUR MEANING????????????????????


Because of YOUR inarticulate expression OF YOUR THOUGHTS?????????????????????


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The world is electrifying fast. Manufacturing processes, cars, trucks, motorcycles, and now airplanes are making the move to electrons that Edison predicted more than a century ago. And they are all doing so for much the same reasons: quieter operation, reduced maintenance requirements, better performance and efficiency, and a more flexible use of energy sources.

European scientists developing axial-flux motor with amazing power density. About 5X the normal e vehicle standard.

The design allows for in-wheel mounting which would enable varying torque to each wheel in order to steer. Known as torque vectoring in aeronautics.

That should be good for anything between 1% and 25%. The more leeway you give, the less likely you are to find yourself in arguments! :)

That will work alright until we near the end of the source. We don't have a lot of rivers left to dam up or habitant to inundate!

Yes...........................................


but HOW SAD for you ..............................................


that it all amounts to NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


WHEN LIE-BERALS HIT THE DEBT WALL.................................



And the BRIBERY/subsidies run out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


NO WONDER Elon Musk wants to send a rocket ship to MARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


HE PLANS TO BE ON IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


To escape angry Tesla creditors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

GM strike is about e cars

https://www.marketwatch.com/story/t...-about-the-switch-to-electric-cars-2019-10-05


From the outside looking in, the talks between the United Auto Workers’ (UAW) striking members and the management of General Motors look like normal disagreements over pay. In reality, they’re really about the future of cars in the U.S.

UAW members’ anxieties and uncertainties are actually shared by GM GM, -0.20% and most other automakers, which know that it’s no longer a question of when internal combustion engine cars will be replaced by electric vehicles, but how quickly the changeover will take place.

The shift to electric means a fundamental transformation of what workers will do and how many are needed to do it.

Electric cars have far fewer parts, which means far fewer people are needed to put them together. When one analyst took apart a Chevrolet Bolt and Volkswagen Golf, he found that the Golf had 125 more moving parts than its electric counterpart. What’s more, the electric vehicles’ parts are often easier to put in place using automated machines. The UAW’s own estimates that the move to electrification may cost 35,000 members to lose their jobs may not be the most scientific study ever done, but it’s also probably not far off.

Fewer workers needed

Would YOU buy an electric car from GM?

They'll be bursting into flames in the show rooms. Everything on them will suddenly go "keeboing" the day after the three year warranty expires.

i wouldn't buy anything from GM
My wife was driving our two little kids, both in car seats in a Pontiac that we used to have and the wiring harness burnt up, sending her and her two chicks running away from it. There were no protectve fuses on any of the branches either, so the whole thing was toast. The Subaru that I had at the time had an on-line fuse wherever the system branched to prevent that sort of total failure.

They still make crap. They deserve to go bankrupt. This time around they will, too.
