  1. They said there would be no visible smoke plume! Hmmm.
  2. I didn't mention carbon especially as methane is rarely mentioned . I .don't dismiss that man messes with and doesn't care about climate change and as you say, they have had a large effect on climate in the time they have been on Earth.. What I do say, is the time that man has been able to have some effect on the climate is as nothing compared to the age of the Earth. I can see that you are number bound so there is no point in further discussion because I am not number bound. I have no anymosity towards you and am glad that we can openely discuss each other's views but I have no wish to compete or win so I'm bowing out and wishing you luck in your mission.
  3. For hot and cold years try 1967 and 1976, for deluges and flooding try the 30s or 50s. Try the chinese altering the speed of the Earth slghtly by their massive Yang tse water resevoirs, try magnetic changes, the poles moving the auroras, volcanoes, meteorites. Of course there's climate change and risen and rising seas and deserts and water and lakes appearing and disappearing. There's also moving tectonic plates, whole continents tipping and moving, solar storms etc. Humans are very small beer compared to that lot, have not been here long and will not be here much longer so their input is negligble in historical terms.
  4. ASITIS beat me to it. Hah.
  5. An Oleo is, I believe, a landing leg suspension system. Goodness knows what an RTO is.
  6. 105,000,000 Manx pounds.
  7. They are quoted as reaching speeds of up to 60mph!
  8. I still think if the existing limits had some logic to them more folk would obey them.
  9. Mandatory medical certificate from doc. possible other requirements subject to previous requirement. Optician certificate of eyesight standard. 3year renewal post 70. According to BBC website this am.
  10. Or they will adopt the new UK legislation considering the renewal of over 70 year old person;s licences.
  11. Why do folk presume jealousy?
  12. I'm more than happy with my series Landie. Does everything I require and no street cred at all. The only thing that is sad is folk presuming jealousy when all I feel is disdain.
  13. Can't stand the phrase, 'supercar'. They are not, they are super ego trips. totally useless as a car other than showing off with their road scraping, almost solid suspension, massive, totally outrageous engines/motors and unecessary speed potential, lack of storage space and just impractical body work. They should be limited to racetracks and shows.
