The good thing about science, tho, is it's open to learning what the answers are, rather than presuming them.

the average price of new gas cars is also out of reach for most people. But your point is valid, EVs aren't really all that different in price anymore.

I'm glad i lived when i did. It wasn't nirvana or anything, but it was probably the best it will be, or close to it. Seems pretty clear that the financial divide is going to come like a freight train, and over night it will deva

we only measure the two directional speed of light (bounce timing). The Einstein convention assumes that speed is the same in all directions. i'm not saying it's not. Just that it's impossible to tell otherwise. Einstein ment
