Thanks, Cousin Eddie.

Have a HART, they’re trying!

“Medium or large?”
“No.”

Cheaper than driving... as long as you live, work, and play within walking distance of a train station.

Maybe there's a duration component? I guess they wouldn't want it to go off every time a bird flew by. On the other hand, a little annoyance could save a lot of money.

Freight trains suck at hills.

I was always taught to leave the grill on at full blast for 5 or so minutes after cooking (10+ if it’s something with a lot of fat or marinade) - sort of an as-you-go self-cleaning cycle. That plus cleaning out the drip pans seems to have worked well.

Makes sense. These things were only designed to last a given amount of time, and it’s a testament to the engineering if everything is falling apart together.

Point for fossil fuels!

Reversible heat pump.

Remember when that building in London melted some guy's Jag?

Also acceptable: “...because this must be it.”

Oh man, that’s amazing! We would always street park in the neighborhood (usually closer to National) and walk into the fairgrounds.

Totally agreed, but that means that we need to mandate Vehicle to Grid. I think only Nissan is offering it at any scale right now.

I'm reserving a spot in my future yard for a Tokamak.

I’m less confident about the grid, although I agree in general that the concern is overblown.

Im a huge ICE fan, but can’t wait to get rid of surface level pollution. I live on a major street that’s also on a relatively steep hill, so my quality of life will go way up when an ICE rumble is replaced with an electric hum...

If carbon savings were the only factor, then yeah, there’s probably some urgency to all of this. Even if not, greening our energy supply makes all of this easier because it’ll suddenly become worth it to do less energy efficient but more carbon efficient manufacturing.

I agree, but I do think that there is a lot of pressure behind how that choice is made.
