I'm always shocked that small ICE equipment don't have catalytic converters, or any emissions reducing devices. Especially given the operator is actually holding the thing and the exhaust is just a foot or two from their face, sur

It's even better! When the US automakers were told they would have to meet mileage targets that Japanese automakers had been meeting for over 10 years... they sued the EPA to say it's unfair! So they openly admitted they couldn&#x

Why do you belittle African countries like that? Do Africans deserve less enforcement of things their government has not approved than people in other parts of the world? Would you be OK if some country started making high-current electrica

I was lucky enough to spend a bunch of time with Chimpanzees and Gorillas in Africa (mostly West Africa). I got to carry them, play with them and just chill with them in the jungle [1]. Staring into their eyes it is impossible to deny we ar

I love how your reply uses real numbers and calculations , and is still down voted, because people don’t like the reality those numbers represent. I’m always scared when seemingly intelligent people disagree with math and facts.
