disparaging Ayrton's name by placing it in the same sentence with Honda? you don't know much about Honda or Ayrton Senna and you have obviously never driven a Honda Accord. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Racing_F1#Honda_as_an_engine_supplier.2C_1983-1992 Honda returned to Formula One in 1983 as an engine supplier for Spirit and stayed in the sport for a decade, at various times teaming with Lotus, McLaren, Tyrrell and Williams. Honda engines were considered the ticket to Grand Prix glory due to their power, reliability, sophistication and winning track record. Honda supplied its engines to six constructor champions, as well as five driver championships (3 by Senna, 1 by Piquet, and another by Prost), before dropping out of the sport again. Honda-powered cars had won 71 Grands Prix, by the end of the 1992 season. 1987 through 1992 - Ayrton drove Honda powered cars. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airton_Senna#1988.E2.80.931993:_McLaren

i am getting my ass handed to me today on slashdot. hahaha, not my day, for sure. ANYWAY, look at this: by Kartu (1490911) Alter Relationship on Thursday December 08, @05:09AM (#38300928) Troll? I find it funny (albeit disturbing). "Very low cost", "very safe" and "very litle waste" in the same sentence talking about nuclear power, makes my heart beat faster. Adding "Microsoft" to already crazy picture doesn't improve things either. Blue wave of death anyone?

Yes, you are correct - microsoft has nothing to do with the nuclear reactor. I think you might have replied to the wrong person. I didn't bring microsoft into the conversation originally. I was merely questioning why not include them after someone else did. Bill Gates was one of the founders of microsoft. Should his past be completely erased when considering his future performance? Did he not have some hand in the direction and performance of windows?

Comment Re:News: Most Americans. . . (Score 1) 398

i looked out across the parking lot during one of the many, many meetings today at work, (don't worry, i am not important) and saw the hood of my 3"(!!!) lowered 2007 tacoma pickup was almost the same height as a toyota t1000 (remember when the T1000 was marketed as a full-size truck?) sitting next to it. why must each vehicle be bigger than the previous model? of course, someone will say, "safety!" aren't formula 1 cars safer today than they were 10 years ago? yes, a little slower, but not much. bigger? nope. fat ass, killswitch wanting IDIOT americans. i am an american and i approve this message.

I put 520 miles on a 2007 toyota tacoma 2.7 liter 4-cylinder with each tank of fuel. :~)> I am not defending the GP... not even close. I just want an electric car that can do 200 miles per day at about 70 mph average. Who wouldn't want an electric car? Seriously! They are so cool and so quiet!!! I drive 900 miles per week for my job. Yes, I hate it.
