"Inexplicably"

My father also had a Rabbit diesel, and Sweet YHWH was it horrible. It smelled horrible all of the time, the door handles kept breaking, and you had to floor it on the downhills to have any hope of making it up the other side.

Big deal. What's the worst that could happen?

It must've been something of that Fiat partnership cause I believe it's the same 'SkyWindow' used in the Fiat Stilo.

Because our grid, is just that, a grid - it doesn't work that way. We provide California with nearly all their energy (Idaho — we're 98% hydro electric) — but we import our energy from Nebraska and the midwest where Coal is abundant. We do so because we get the cheapest electrical rates in the country ($0.07 a kWh).

So…

It's based on an averaged grid estimate. As I'm sure you know, all the power here in the United States (Or most parts of the world) is linked together — from the coal and gas sources, to the hydro, thermal and solar.

Currently, this figure would be 5x's worse if I used Asia's Co2 / kWh ratio. : )

I find it astonishing people still buy into electric cars being green... when it's not at all, in fact, it's just as bad, and sometimes worse, than driving a normal car.

Each kWh used by this, or any electric car being charged, is 1.341lbs of Co2... To put that in perspective...

Most electric cars are around 2.1 - 3.1…

Pretty sure the building owners will pay for his deductible, such a bad building design how could the architect not thing of the reflections.

With a name like Lindsey, he's been shit on so much he's used to it by now.

"despite its "Back To The Future" buzz"

I'm going to disagree with you Raph.

As long as we're in an era where the only "drama" comes from a team testing tires on *gasp* an un-approved day!, then no, we're not in a golden age for anything.

DRS, Crappy Tires, becoming more spec everyday. Its becoming NASCAR, its all about the show/drama/soap opera not the racing. Every new tech seems to be banned. I think the WEC is better, no gimmicks, not spec racing, new tech is allowed to be explored, cars are allowed to be different, they have a tire war with great…

Don't see a golden age... F1 seems more like a joke to me now.

Yeah, I know we love cars and all... But dude.

Now that Don't Ask, Don't Tell is history, that is going to happen from time to time.

What makes this most annoying is that flight attendants are willing to outright lie to customers about their safety, to get them to follow the rules. I'm sure it's an effective tactic in a post-9/11 world, but it's still completely untrue. It's like when a flight attendant tells you that you have to have your cell…

This is yet another example of information overabundance. You can collect all of this information, but what you should be asking is "does it do anything to improve my life?"

That Trickle article was an amazing read. I was shocked and saddened when he died, and I'm still stunned today. What an article. Beautiful.

It sort of diminishes the accomplishment when you realize it was 1st in its class of 3. :/
