The_YongGrand I do as well Bro and lets hope it doesn't happen it will affect more than gas prices

I watched a show about "Chinese Geomancy Guide" (feng shui) and the Master (sifu) said something like, "When a country is at war, everyone is a beggar." !!

Oh, I think it would be no sweat. I think all they (the Bush administration) want to do is bomb their nuclear plants and bunkers to slow down their nuclear program by a few decades. I mean they got all that oil... What the hell do they need nuclear power plants for??? I'll tell ya... They are enriching uranium to make an atomic bomb.

And with their president talking about "wiping Israel off the map",

Everytime he runs his pie hole. I say bombs away...

That's true. But if I were them, I would be pressurising the Chinese, Russians and North Koreans not to export their nuclear technologies to them.

It takes a lot of technical know-how to refine uranium and supply of fissionable uranium/plutonium is strictly regulated. So unless they have help, it's really very hard for Iran to come up with enough fissionable materials to create a bomb.

Besides, I think the biggest danger when it comes to nukes are the availability of nuclear materials AND bombs in the black market. Possession of such materials by a terrorist organization is a far bigger problem than a country that refuses to toe the US line.

Agh, I hated wars,and nuclear weapons is so much of a taboo nowadays... Wish they don't create those dangerous things.

Back to the topic - newer cars nowadays are 'supplied' with NGV tanks. Whoa!

I'm not going to sacrifice 30% of power using NGV.

Hehe.. What about hybrids?

BTW, what happened to that so-called Malaysian-developed technology that uses "WATER" to power vehicles?

I thought they were supposed to develop some vehicles with a Chinese company???

If you spend all your time flooring the throttle, it might give worse fuel consumption, as shown in the latest Top Gear!

Yeah, hybrids require a light foot to maximize mileage... or so I read.

Yup exactly. So it's a very slow car.
