ECO terrorists, every last one of them. But at least they are doing something beyond wagging a finger and complaining that 'someone should do something' about this. As misdirected and criminally irresponsible as it is, at least someone took action.

I believe da Vinci also was able to actually make visible and reproduce the vortex patterns in water making something invisible visible for the first time?

People are just going to have to learn to ramp back their energy consumption. It's that simple. Before electricity was widely distributed, we survived. No, you couldn't use your 2 KW toaster but make do with your 500 W toaster... or no toaster. We will have to adapt sooner or later once fossil fuels are no longer…

Bad form replying to myself I know but I just had to share with the class! Bought the KLR650 this past Saturday! WooHoo! Can't wait until spring!

There is no other feeling worse than coming home after a long road trip - we left bright and early one Saturday morning all jazzed about where we were going - and driving down the road and seeing your garage door wide open as you return home 12 hours later.

I always leave a basement window open to draw fresh air in offsetting what the exhaust vent hoods remove and the two CO detectors I already have should be adequate. I actually had a problem with the furnace February of last year when the heat exchanger cracked and was not burning efficiently so it would shut down the…

Grew up with the Peanuts, I love this! Looks kinda like Wallace and Gromit claymation but somehow better. Looking forward to it!

I have a workshop and small machine shop in my basement, along with laundry, heating etc. and sealed the holes where the heating ducts go from the basement up to the various rooms with spray foam. I've also insulated most of the ducts and enclosed some where I couldn't easily get access to the actual duct.

The dictionary for me. I mean, you can't spell? Read the dictionary. Bored and can't sleep? Read the dictionary.
