Trump adds $1 TRILLION in DEBT (with pitifully insignificant economic growth)

[Hoid]

You want to increase it such that you understand that this is not a clever exchange.

 

[petros]

Let's get this straight. Near zero emissions diesel engine exist only for the intelligent but don't exist if you're a half wit?

I'll go with that.

There is no doubt that lot's of people over 65 are seeing hard times.

Money today is almost worthless. You need thousands of dollars to buy what was hundreds of dollars of stuff when 65 year old's were young.

A tank of gas is $100

Yep, when I first started in the work force 6 cents was +/- equal to what a dollar is today.

I can't remember what a sixpence piece looks like. They were no longer used in Canada when I was born.

I'm hoping this is YOUR idea of a joke!

Or Cumming/Nissan

NEAR-ZERO EMISSIONS
Proven air handling and emissions control technology draws upon Cummins extensive emissions technology expertise. Cummins M2™ Two-Stage Turbocharger, cooled Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) and Cummins Emission Solutions Aftertreatment System, featuring a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), result in near-zero oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and particulate matter (PM) emissions while delivering better performance and fuel economy.

You ludites are a real hoot.

Yup. You want zero emissions go electric.



'Impossible-to-cheat' emissions tests show almost all new diesels still dirty

Yeah, cuz making electricity is carbon neutral.

 

[Hoid]

consuming it is.

As long as you make the cement for the damn only from tropical sun hardened cement powder!

Common materials used to manufacture cement include limestone, shells, and chalk or marl combined with shale, clay, slate, blast furnace slag, silica sand, and iron ore. These ingredients, when heated at high temperatures form a rock-like substance that is ground into the fine powder that we commonly think of as cement.

The cement kiln heats all the ingredients to about 2,700 degrees Fahrenheit in huge cylindrical steel rotary kilns lined with special firebrick. Kilns are frequently as much as 12 feet in diameter—large enough to accommodate an automobile and longer in many instances than the height of a 40-story building

The finely ground raw material or the slurry is fed into the higher end. At the lower end is a roaring blast of flame, produced by precisely controlled burning of powdered coal, oil, alternative fuels, or gas under forced draft.
How Cement Is Made

It's always amazing what some liberal arts/DRAMA/trumphate "teachers" DON'T KNOW!

You want to increase it such that you understand that this is not a clever exchange.

We got that just from reading YOUR posts alone!

Petro's contribution was unnecessary to that conclusion!

pS
emphasis on the:

liberal arts/DRAMA/trumphate "teachers"

In all fairness to any math/english/physics/chemistry teachers out there who probably do OK when allowed to.

 

[Bar Sinister]

Yeah, cuz making electricity is carbon neutral.

Actually nothing is, but green energy is far easier on the environment.
