Please stay safe!
Don't forget to have enough drinking water on hand. It's really important to stay hydrated, especially when you're under stress and potentially have lots of clean-up to do!
Thinking of all you Texans.....

"Being an elder and the false sense of power and purpose it gives one is about the best that they can hope for."
This is good to keep in mind for any of us who have loved ones still in the WT. They need a purpose in life other than the To Do List that the WT provides for them. The problem, of course, is that the society labels everything else as a waste of time. But it's still something to shoot for, imho.
Great thread!!

Can you play a region 2 DVD on a computer that has a DVD-player? I thought computer DVD's are able to handle all regions...?

I really hope the water car isn't bogus, but I guess we'll see in time. I know someone who is planning convert his car to run on water and gas, so I'm very interested to see how that goes! GGG

Personally, I like the idea of a car that runs on only water. There are several people in my area selling kits to convert your car to run on water as a supplement to gas (potentially doubling gas mileage), and now Japan has unveiled a prototype that runs on water only. They are looking for a Japanese automaker to make the cars.

In order for the US to reduce it's dependence on foreign oil, we need to explore all the options. For example: Nanotechnology is being used to develop vastly more efficient solar cells, which would make solar power a viable option for even the less-than-sunkissed areas of the world. How about some government funding for stuff like that?? Serious funding could reduce the development period from years to months.
Don't think I'll hold my breath, however.

WTWizard, just have to take this opportunity to tell you that the names you've come up with for the "trademarked" (lol) WT terms always crack me up! My personal favorite: "Washtowel Society"! A close second: "Waste of Paper Distribution Campaign"! "Crapt" is pretty good, too!
Ok, I've had my morning giggle..... on to the next thread!
