Cars cars cars

It looks like car manufacturers have made no great advances in fuel efficiency in the past half-century. Its not exactly shocking, no doubt they are all in bed with the oil companies anyway. The new Commodore is a perfect example of this. Lets give the average Aussie family a 6.0L V8 with 20" rims to drive the kids around... What a joke. And, as most Commodores are company cars for employee's that get tax benefits for the more they drive, its no doubt that our cars are contributing 14% of our carbon emissions.

Wake up Australia.

Cars no more efficient than 60's.
Tax breaks on company cars may go.

At what temperature would you consider swimming in nuclear cooling water?

I wonder how hot these Taiwanese people are to make them think that the water being drained from the Nuclear power plant after being used for cooling, is safe to swim in?


"I haven't evaluated the safety here. That's something scholars
and experts should research more,"

This is a classic quote. I love it. People are so sure that others will look after them.
