Here's what I understood by the statement: Mazda is down-converting the voltage from the 25V stored in the capacitor system down to 12V so that it can power the electrics in the car.

MSG is commonly demonized as giving people headaches, and it's possible that some people are more sensitive to MSG or currently unknown reasons; these people can avoid MSG and treat it like some manner of allergen, but this doesn't mean that it is inherently bad (we don't know). MSG is often cited as causing obesity,…

I was scratching my head for a bit until I realized that the INS was reorganized and renamed in 2003.

Eesh. Is that a pump dispenser in the picture; or a used crack pipe?
