Drop that Nissan 300hp V6 in the Mazda, THEN we’d be having some fun.

Best thing I’ve read on here in months. You really seem to get it.

This is a tremendous loss. There aren’t many people willing to pour so much of themselves into their passion, and with such phenomenal results. He also, by all accounts, was a pretty excellent human in general. RIP.

PS Yeah sure, you can spend less on this model, but at higher miles:

I SAID GOOD DAY

OK. I’m gonna be nice.

“You’re harping on this same cost thing. That’s one measure of cost. Meanwhile you don’t see natural gas being turned off in favor of wind.

Thank you for breaking that down for me.

You still have no coherent response to the current energy prices that he keeps linking and copying. Wind currently, right now, costs about the same as natural gas. This despite a glut of NG in the market. What does that fact indicate to you?

The “just around the corner” rabbit hole technologies have always been clean nuclear and fusion. THOSE are very difficult problems to solve. Renewables already make sense, the tech is already there for the current usage, and the tech for increasing the scale isn’t the unsolvable riddle that fusion is. As you say, it…

“Solving the nuclear waste problem is scientifically trivial next to the power storage problems with wind and solar.”

“If could stand on it’s own two feet it would have done so a long time ago.”
