I'm a big McPhee fan. Critical difference here, the Aereon was an aerodynamic lifting body design, this is a bog standard dirigible by comparison. Somehow the Wikipedia page has no photos?? Tons of great ones here: https://l

Hot water is my favorite modern luxury. I'd shower twice a day if it wasn't such a poor environmental choice. I need to shower every day that I exercise and get sweaty, which is most days unless I'm overloaded with work.

Yep, I was half-expecting this to be a single-word post: "Don't." (I worked as a research engineer at a big name university for 8 years, helping people do experiments for their PhDs, and I have Seen Some Shit.)

I have three kids, and sometimes drive the carpool for swimming or hockey. So we have one minivan and one Nissan Leaf. The small car is the day-to-day car and the minivan is the expedition/carpool car. Works great for us. I have no ide
