...the Ford Modular V8 was weird and had both pushrod and OHC configurations...

You know, I have ALSO heard that women get fewer black eyes if they just keep their damn mouths shut, too.

Stephens said someone had asked her son why he didn’t have a clip in the gun and told him to put it in. “As he put the clip in the gun, that is when the gun went off,” the grieving mother added.

My dad worked on DASH helicopters during the Vietnam war. They were actually a really smart solution to the question of stand-off antisubmarine weapons delivery. Basically, the sonar operator and the guy remotely flying the DASH worked together to put the radar blip for the helicopter on top of the sonar blip for the…

No, I am assuming that it works like literally every other commodity. If there is a glut on the market, uneconomical production stops - people don’t keep manufacturing it just to throw it away. Are you saying that biodiesel production creates enough byproduct glycerine to meet all other uses, with excess supply left…

So in other words, the commodity cost went down. It’s not a “waste product.”

No, glycerin has a ton of other uses besides running inefficient generators

Not Maintenance. Maintenace. You can’t put a price tag on maintenace.

Hertz is seriously the worst car rental company I have ever dealt with. I am sure that their employees are trained to cram charges and upgrades whenever possible.

Scientists were testing the interceptor to determine if a resigned would solve the thruster issue. It didn’t. One of the four interceptors shut down, sending the interceptor off course.

And it’s definitely not going to make 13.5 PSI at that RPM, period.

This is a pretty terrible attitude. Would you rather have those motorcyclists in cars instead, adding even more traffic? That’s just stupid.

I would think optical would be easier to implement and more reliable than vibration. CD versus vinyl...

Late to the party so maybe somebody has already mentioned this, but Cajon Speedway, adjacent to Gillespie Field in El Cajon, CA. Billed as “the fastest 3/8 mile paved oval in the west.”

One, I thought the polar ice caps had been solved by global warming.
