why would you say something mean? that makes me feel bad.

I don't know, but I can't wait to find out!

I like to wear watches. Recently lost my watch, Frownie face. But I don't want to get a new one because I'm holding out for an iwatch later this year. In the meantime, my wrist feels naked! I just hope the iwatch is sub $400.

Dude, you bet against the iPad? I wish I could have been there to take that bet.

The implications of this research are huge, from mammoths to saber tooth tigers. I'm excited to see what they add to the zoo next! But they can't try to control it too tightly... life will find a way...

let's agree to disagree.

But what about the peanuts?

what are you burning to produce a flame?

if you have a "thermoelectric engine" then what is producing the heat to power the thermoelectrics?

point granted, the "powered by" slope is a slippery one. but saying the car is powered by thermoelectrics is like saying it's powered by suspensions.

once again, no. honda vs. lexus. source: my brain.

the entire bay area is like an inflamed pimple of overpriced housing. SF is the crusty white head on that pimple.

ok but then the car is still powered by fuel. in your scenario you would still need an external combustion engine to produce heat.

the magna carta?

here's the deal. california cities use very little water. 80% of the water in this state is used by agriculture. only 10% by people. An a large part of the agriculture water is used to grow stupid crops, like rice or feed for chinese cows. if farmers in california grew climate appropriate crops then everybody whould have enough water.

technically, you would still need an energy source (gasoline, natural gas, batteries) to power the cars. thermo electrics could make it more efficient by recycling waste heat. but the thermoelectrics themselves would not power the cars.
