$3.24 here

average $3.00 here, but this one gas station around my college has it for $2.89

This is one of those times you wish you had a company car and your company paying for the petrol you use. Then you'd be laughing all the way to the petrol station.

The company would probably take that car back if the gas bill is too high -.-

No.

My dad has to drive up and down california all day selling people home improvement. He doesnt pay for the gas, he recalls it in his taxes basically saying that he shoudl have to pay it because its his JOB and therefore he spends 100$ a day on gas and might only make 150$ a day.(even though he make slike 5000 a week he still makes the gov. pay for his gas or his company or something)

its HIS car too

And I'm talking about a car a major corporation is allowing someone to use....

And I'm bashing my head in more and more every time Lenny says "petrol."

Lenny 2005-09-12 02:51 PM

Hey, petrol's the word I use, and petrol's the word I'm gonna say.

As for the car, I've got a mate who's dad has had the car since the last petrol crisis over here. He's been spending thousands on petrol and the company don't mind. It might be worth saying that it was he who gave himself the car as he is the manager for that branch.

Another thing preventing the release of many alternative fuel sources is that oil companies are snapping up Patents for engines that use alternative fuel sources, due to their stubbornness to change their assets around.

Hell, I was talking with my Uncle a while back, and he had actually drawn up the plans for an engine that would seperate the hydrogen from water (forgot the term for that), burn it as fuel, and have a recondensing chamber to minimize water loss as well. Problem was that he was in the Army at the time, and legally anything you invent while in the Army can be patented by the Government.

Does that mean my "Porn-Organizer" is technically a product of the ARMY?

At least it can't be said you're all wasting your time doing things that don't help or contribute to the greater good of the world.

That can't work because the amount of energy released as heat when hydrogen combusts with air is equal to the amount of energy required to separate them to combust. If it did the separation by dialisis, it'd be more efficient to just use an electric power plant.
