    Rock Climbing

    Not just that, but be careful of all climbing equipment - especially other peoples gear. That rope your buddy brings might actually be his dads from 10 years ago.. Likewise he might store it in his car boot with his spare battery rolling around. Ask lots of questions, look at what your buddy is...

    School me on electric cars and batteries. and greener energy production.

    AFAIK the limitation with electric vehicles is the compromise between range, battery cost and cycles. We have good batteries, that can get decent range (100-200 km), with 2000+ cycle count, but they will set you back (best case scenario) 5-10 grand. So with a cycle every two days you are...

    The stupid questions thread.

    I have a 1996 Honda Civic, and I am looking it driving at 3000km next week. The car has 205 on the clock. It's been serviced mostly up to date. Last week I got the timing belt changed, and the mechanic noted that 'All drive belts need replacing' (why in hell he didn't replace them why he was...

    The stupid questions thread.

    Might not help you now, but in future try using Lyx or Latex. It's a bit of a learning curve but for correctly and quickly formatting it makes life good.
