[gizmodo.com] This is not the same type of 2 stroke you are used to. You do not premix and burn the oil in the combustion chamber. It has intake ports at the bottom of the cylinder and exhaust valves at the top. Look up an old Detroit diesel there most popular one was the 71 series.

With the parasitic drag on that blower, she is truly all blow and no go.

Here is an analogy. The same principle goes for cars to buses. Buses get worse fuel economy but the fuel economy per person is greatly improved (driving 15 passenger cars wastes more fuel than a bus). Also it is easier to convert that one bus engine to a new alternative fuel (future technology maybe cheap flash…

31 GPM @ WOT is acutally really good fuel economy considering her size. But 1868 GPH is more than I can afford.

The real question is, does it fit in a cup holder?

They are not reliable enough and quite finicky about the ammo they will accept. If you want to go semi auto a Remington Model 1100 is much more robust and shares many parts with the proven 870. Kalashnikov parts may be hard to come by post apocalypse.

I was there in July of 09 and coming from the heat in FL I wanted some of that weather. Well wouldn't you know it I walked into a heat wave with record temps at 105 and none of you people have A/C. I don't sweat in bed in FL but I did there.

Car salesman on the other hand are not human and wear suits in the sun so they can digest their last meal.

Not entirely true why we build houses today without spiral staircases and the such. You can blame the ADA for that one.

There was probably residual oil inside the pipes. Even brand new ones sometimes come coated with it to prevent corrosion. But yes a agree no story.

Actually there is a theory that suggests we evolved into a form of water loving primate, probably to get food from a tropical estuarine environment. There is evidence that supports this. 1 Way less body hair than apes (common for land animals that adapt to water). 2 a downward pointing nose so that water doesn't fill…

Me too, message sent. Thanks.

Love it or hate it FOX News is wildly entertaining. Left wing commentating is boring, and that is a fact regardless of your political affiliation.

As a Med School undergrad you should know that AIDS is not spread, it is merely a syndrome of an underlying infectious agent. HIV on the other hand can be spread, but I doubt that a rodent can spread the virus to a human. The most spreadable disease in this case, which you have not mentioned, is Hepatitis. Hep C has…

"Can work" but nowhere near the capacity stated.

Well Israeli airport security personnel probably aren't minimum wage security guards either.

I was sitting next to a guy in a restaurant with a knife too. I don't know how I made it out of there.

Osama Bin Laden has accomplished his goal. That was to make us live in fear and change the way we go about our daily business. Congratulations Osama you can now be dead happily.

Yeah and the SlingShot is about $65

Wow, what is this uplifting Wednesday?
