I read your blogs all the time; I just wonder whether I can add anything of value (as if I ever add anything of value.)

I am viewing a wonderful film:

I of course love conspiracy theories involving gas companies and such.

I mean I caddied at this exclusive club (read no Jews, Blacks, Women or communists) in 65 and 66 and here were these electric cars. All over the place.

And almost half a century later, we do not have electric cars all over the place?

Electricity, baby! Whoooo!

I don't think there is any realistic hope of stopping fracking, or it's down and dirty cousin, tar sand rendering.

Since that means game over, per Hansen, I am going long kayak mfg.

As someone who had a speech impediment as a child, most notably having my "r" sound like "w", I can't say I much care for the name of the Twike.

Yeah, those prices—and the cost of shipping one over here—are why I'll probably never own one. The name is short for Twin Bike, but is of course a play on Trike, too.

As someone who had a speech impediment as a child, most notably having my "r" sound like "w", I can't say I much care for the name of the Twike. Its price is rather high, as well—it's nearly $25,000 dollars, not including the battery! (If you want the top-of-the-line battery, it'll nearly double the cost. Even the cheapest battery will set you back another $8,500 dollars.)
