The battery will just about get you from Fort Worth to Dallas.

LMAO ... But don't be so skeptical. I think DFW has a charging station.

At under 40,000 US, I don't know how he could pull that off. The batteries alone would have to cost nearly half of that. Even a Jeep Wrangler is in the 40,000 range now. A truck like that with the torque of an electric motor, in a 4x4 configuration ... wow. Only to dream.
We shall see.
(PS, Simon, I do agree that he is probably smoking dope to do what he is claiming to do at 40k).

That must have some big-ass batteries in it to go 500 miles on a charge.
Just as with all electric vehicles, I cannot imagine what the cost of a new battery would be as it slowly wears out.
But the more I look at it, the more "interesting" it becomes.
Elon Musk didn't become the visionary that he is based on following someone else's ideas.
People like him and Richard Branson (Virgin Airlines) are so far ahead of the curve that it is truly fascinating to see what they think of next.

Double Standard of Proof
by neat blue dog inthere's a new article about john the baptist (not sure why they reverted to baptist instead of the modern english 'baptizer'), and it goes into several areas of his life followed by quotes from josephus showing that these specific things were historically documented.
the article is summarized by saying:.
the first-century historian josephus viewed john the baptist as a real person.

You could also say that no one is going to confuse your car with all the Toyotas in everyone else's driveways.

What Do You Think About Banning Plastic Bags?
by minimus inwe need to save the planet so we have to stop using plastic bags!
in massachusetts, the new law will be going into effect soon.

I was somewhat shocked when I moved down here to Florida from NY State. We generally had paper bags in the supermarkets there and you would generally try to fill it reasonably full. I come to Florida, go to a supermarket and buy 7 items and end up with 5 or 6 plastic bags. They seem to only put 1 or 2 items in a plastic bag. It just seems counter-intuitive to me.

Although many here may think I lean to the left a lot, I would say that a paper bag is better than plastic. Leave the paper bag in your backyard a few months and it just goes away. Plastic seems to remain forever.

First On-Screen Crush?
by Simon inmany years ago, we lived in a world where the one tv in your house might be black and white, perhaps color if you were lucky, but either way the screen was small and the arial on your house would struggle to deliver a decent signal but often fail in a fuzzy mess.
most of the movies you saw were old, there was no home video or rental - you got a chance to see something and then it was gone.
planning your viewing was important to make sure you didn't miss something so you'd carefully scan the tv guide to pick out your favourites ... good job there were only 2 or 3 channels to look through.. but you could still see quality if you went to the movie theatre and there you got to see glorious film on a giant screen (which is only now being equalled quality wise).

Even though much older than me, Diana Rigg (Mrs. Peel) in the Avengers. In the original British show (probably reruns we got here in the US), she was just so cool. Her and Mr. Steed were great.
That still ranks in my mind as one of the best shows ever.

(If an appeal is made after seven days, the judicial committee should contact the Service Department immediately for direction.)
slimboyfat ...
I think that is likely what happened in the situation I described earlier here. The person did not appeal but after a short time (perhaps a few weeks) presented proof that he was not even in town at the the time the elders thought they saw him alone with a woman in her house. They called his relatives in another state to confirm that he was visiting and he provided receipts of his travel.
It all got somehow "rescinded."
