Someone going 45mph through traffic going 5mph is not safely lanesplitting. While in the past CA had no lanesplitting law, so it was basically legal by default they are addressing this issue of lanesplitting at high differentials of speed... this is in fact when it does become dangerous. This law basically allows the…

No it’s not safer for the motorcyclist, and numerous studies have shown this to be the case. Since motorcyclists tend to be ignored by cars when traffic slows or comes to a stop motorcyclist often get sandwiched.

Vintage car racing is the best. I used to always go to the Nürburgring historic car races. I loved one year that they put Fiat 500 right after CanAm cars. It was ironic to see cars that had to downshift going up the back straight, after the most powerful road racing cars ever.

I would advise against powering your laptop, or other sensitive electronics off with such an inexpensive inverter. It would create a very uneven AC signal that can damage some sensitive electronics.

Yup pretty much... that’s why where I live there are signs posted that say Right to Farm life Law. You get people from the city wanting to move out into the quite country side, then they discover that their neighbor is out early in the morning running his tractor, and that manure sticks, the roads get dirty from…

True.... bee keepers die too.

I’m not entirely sure, but I think the last one regarding milk is from a German TV program. The German Milk companies all switched to a different glue, and it became maddeningly difficult to open the containers. Everyone was trying to figure out new ways to open milk containers as a result. One news program finally…

Actually not that big of an issue if you hire the correct security firm. A colleague of mine was a part of the group that found Saddam Hussein. While a Security contractor in Iraq he had a permit to carry guns internationally. He told me about going through immigration in Europe and someone behind him freaking out…

Actually I do... but I work on industrial equipment, some of which uses it. Oddly enough the stuff that does not use it is actually an older architecture design. It has a smart terminal that can access multiple servers. The equipment that does use the KVM just uses dumb terminals with the KVM spitting the signals to…

Gary Johnson!!!!

They have been in and out of service quite a few times over the decades. Last time I was there was about the same time you were there, so I don't really have any information if they are currently in use. I do know that if you go into Yellowstone in the Winter, be sure to ride in one of these. The Ford Vans with the…

It’s clever I will grant you that... but it is certainly not enough to even remotely be a deciding factor. Plus, I doubt in real life it will be as practical. I know that storage bin would likely house my cell phone and maybe some cords, and loose change, maybe sunglasses and other things. So on that very rare…

Well... as presented here NP... However, I'm always leery of Frankenstein's like this. It sounds a great combination, but without knowing the abilities of the person who did the work, I'd look it over with a strong dose of skepticism before laying out the cash. Also on a test drive it would have to prove to be as fun…

As someone with a Deutscher Führerschein (German Drivers License) I can tell you that is utter BS. The speed limit on the Autobahn is a recommended 130kmh unless otherwise posted. The speed limit on any road outside the city, but NOT the autobahn is 100kmh unless otherwise posted. If you see an unrestricted sign on…

This would not have helped me in about half the jobs I have had. My first job I probably got by sheer chance. The manager I interviewed with got fired after I interviewed with him. I stopped in to see what the status of the job was, and the new manager hired me on the spot as she only knew someone had been selected…

Wait a second... no team orders... BUT

Glad your doing better. Reading your article brought some thoughts to my mind on an incident that happened to me. I’m epileptic, and in 2001 I had a seizure in the cafeteria at work. I ended up hitting my head on the table cutting a large gash over my right eye. (I knock named it my Harry Potter Scar) After getting…

not sure of the exact reason, but I would suspect it is similar to alcohol consumption. With thinner air at altitude drugs can have a stronger effect. thus if you sedated them on the ground, it could be an excessive amount once at altitude.

I recall an Indy 500 race in which the front came off and then the driver hit the wall and was killed. Or at least that is how I remember it, I was young at the time. Looking at these pictures I am wondering if this is the race I am thinking of and just figured he could not have survived.
