What do You Think About Hybrid and Electric Cars?

by Village Idiot in

battery technology has been making leaps and bounds in affordability and energy output throughout the past decade.

while pure electric cars currently have limited range, the near future holds prospects for longer ranges.

hybrids, and recently plug in hybrids, have a mileage of up to 50 mpg* giving them a range of 500 miles from a ten gallon gas tank.

What you said is incorrect bohm. For every person like me there are 100 who drive only short distances. That is why there is a market for this product.

I never did say electric vehicles are no good. They just wouldn't work for me at this time. Right now they are meant for people who live in cities with short commuting times.

I'm not sure where everyone is coming from here but travelling 1000 km in one trip happens on a regular basis in my life and many others who live in remote northern communities. People have to travel for medical appointments, shopping or just to get out. A fully electric vehicle would not only need to propel itself but also provide heat for defrosting windows and keeping it's occupants from freezing.

I have issues with the current range of electric vehicles. When they can travel up to a thousand km on one charge in 40 below zero temperatures I might consider one.

New JW Talk Show - "The Inside Story"

by neat blue dog in

has anybody seen the new half-hour jw talk show called the inside story?

the pilot is included in part 2 of the latest gilead graduation program, and they said more will likely come.. basically, it's probably one of the most cringeworthy programs to ever come out of jw broadcasting.

it has all the tropes: an opening monologue, a studio audience, a live band, and guests that move down the couch to the left as the next guest is introduced.

Jehovah Witnesses View on medical marijuana?

by Slade1224 in

i was wondering what the view jehovah witnesses and the bible and tract society had on medical cannabis?

i remember as a kid reading in the reasoning book that marijuana was bad and smoking it caused cancer and was worse then cigarettes.

as more reach comes out we are leaning marijuana can cure certain forms of cancer!

When they legalize it here in Canada I'm going to try some cannibas. I can do whatever I want in the privacy of my home.

When did the Iron Age start according to the Bible? You'll be surprised!

by Crazyguy in

read this over at reddit so the credit goes to the person over there but in genesis 4:22 it's say one of the offspring of adam knew how to work with iron roughly 130 years after the creation of man.

now historians and scientists say man didn't figure out how to use iron until about 1100 bc, man we're we wrong!

it's also interesting that cain is building a city when there like 10 people on the planet and nimrod goes on to build the tower of babel only about 100 year after the flood.
