  1. Yes, she does and he is about 240lbs!!! Time and pressure will always show you who a person really is!
  2. That subject title was just wrong! Time and pressure will always show you who a person really is!
  3. Hell yes, I go a few times a year Time and pressure will always show you who a person really is!
  4. And that is starting to happen. We are getting ready to start two new nuclear plants in south Florida alone. Also, the non-nuclear plants that we build now are combined -cycle and run off of natural gas so there is no oil or coal. If you look at the stacks you don't even see anything coming out of them the emissions are so low. Time and pressure will always show you who a person really is!
  5. Sounds like it is time to get a group together for a midnight show in Hollywood!!! Time and pressure will always show you who a person really is!
  6. There, fixed it for you. 39 states have net metering and the number is growing. Time and pressure will always show you who a person really is!

  10. In the 70's power plants were almost 75% less efficient than today and used 80% oil vs. 9% today. Also renewable sources were almost non-existent on an industrial scale. How many hybrids did you see on a global production level back then? A/C units had a seer of 8 now they are 22+. You don't see a change? Time and pressure will always show you who a person really is!
  11. "Free" energy as you call it is not "free". Renewable energy such as solar for example is one of the most expensive forms of energy production. I agree with you that America needs to be more aggressive in converting to renewable energy but it is such a massive project because you have to also update the grid to an intelligent grid in addition to tapping the renewable resources that it will not happen over night. The company I work for is the largest solar/wind producer in the U.S. and it has barely tapped to any useable standard the use of renewable sources. If you look at the largest solar facility in the world which is SEGS in the Mojave Desert it only produces 315MW where the plant that I am at by itself produces over 3,600MW. They are aggressive in advancing renewable sources and invest hundreds of millions of dollars, but it takes time. We are now getting ready to put a large test hydro generation system in the Gulf Stream in the Atlantic that if it works out could one day produce up to 40% of the national electric supply. We are also starting construction on three solar projects that will make Florida #2 for solar production. It should also be noted that on the non-renewable side, the industry has made huge increases in efficiency. Other than nuclear (cheapest and cleanest electric) all new plants are now combined cycle and are 22% more efficient than traditional plants. Also as one of the largest energy producers in the U.S., only 9% of our fuel requirements now come from oil. I absolutely agree with you about vehicles, appliances and energy efficient homes. That one an individual basis would in itself make a huge difference. My A/C units for example are 22 seer, so my question is why even offer anything less? I have solar water heat and I built my home to be extremely efficient. My July electric bill last month was $150.00 and that is for a 6,300sq. ft home with 3,800 A/C area and a 6,000 sq. ft. barn/shop. So I think that we are making strides to become non-dependant on both imports and the need for fossil fuels. I think the next 10 years will be the real test to tell us if America is going to walk the walk. Time and pressure will always show you who a person really is!

  23. There are several factors involved. Not all law enforcement has the equipment/training to retrieve the data and some just use it for fatal accidents etc. There is also the ongoing debate of invasion of privacy and the inability of the owner to have the option of disengaging the function. The issues crops up every so often and people get up in arms about it then it dies off. I have one of THESE plugged into my OBD-II connector.

  24. This has already been in place in every car since 1996 and has been used by law enforcement and investigators for years. It is accessed by your OBD-II connector under you steering wheel. Time and pressure will always show you who a person really is!
