Not sure what you are on about here, but Dutch Kindelberger was born in West Virginia, and the plane was designed at the behest of the British, largely by Edgar Schmued, who left Germany in 1925, while Adolf was still in jail for the Beer Hall Putsch. There is no way he designed the P-51 in 1925, since it uses a NACA…

Truly the best, most modern example of the successful implementation of “simplify and add lightness” and the ‘KISS’ principle.

Math skills come in flavors. I’ve had all kinds of moderately advanced math, and can’t do arithmetic in my head for shit. If I can’t make a picture, I’m pretty much sol. You got the better deal. Still, even i know that 12.10 + 3.90 is 16.

There’s a bit more to it than that. Here in my state, democrats got 44% of the congressinal votes, but only 27% of the seats. Jerrymandering is kicking all our asses.

Sorry chief, I got my engineering degree decades ago. Now go spout your ignorant ‘it’s mostly carbon so it’s all natural can’t hurt me’ crap elsewhere. Loser.

Buckle your helmet! They don’t work if they don’t stay on. Yeah, yeah, you were drag racing a HMMV, and that’s as safe as houses, hell it’s practically a house, but you’ll get bad habits and you set a bad example for the yutes.

As a bike rider, I see a combination of the worst features of cars and bikes. I don’t think you’ve missed anything. However, the mook that built this monstrosity missed the front brake. This thing uses up so much nope it’s causing a world shortage.

I’m glad you think you’ve “won” something. Now go huff some natural particulates. They’re mostly carbon.

I’m not going to pay any attention to somebody who is too stupid to understand that the particulate pollution in question is not visible, is harmful because of the small size of the particulate no matter what the particle is made of, and doesn’t know the difference between then and than.

I’d pay that much for an SR500 in a Dick Mann chassis, but for a mostly stock version? CP all the way.

So I said that benzene is mostly carbon too. Also a true statement. In this case the composition is not the primary source of toxicity, as you’d know if you’d bothered to read. So, why is “mostly” the “key word” and how does that change the toxic nature of diesel soot? What vehicle gets 50mpg in Europe and 25mpg here…

The Lancet says particulates cause cancer. You say, it’s just carbon - natural can’t hurt you. So what exactly is your point other than ‘government bad, natural good, scientist stupid?’

The Lancet is 1.outside of government. 2. outside of the country.

So... let me get this straight. You think the EPA doesn’t do a good enough job of keeping our air clean of pollutants that aren’t harmful because they’re mostly carbon. SMH.

I’m sorry that you think your ignorance is as good as knowledge. Once again, the facts have a well known bias, and the science is quite clear.

Even with a DPF some particulate escape - the best DPF is 95% effective. Ultra fine particulates are really bad for things. But yes, you are correct, VW was gaming NOx.

Digitoxin is mostly carbon. Go eat a spoonful of that, maybe wash it down with a nice cool glass of benzine (mostly carbon) and get back to me.
The size of the particulate is what causes the the toxicity. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_ex…

Na, jokes are funny.
