Jerry that makes no sense to me. The outcome is either random or it is not. The next number is not dependent on previous results. -

I still carry two Avgas cards for flying but havent needed them for years. Most sites use a phone app or credit card. But if I ditch the Avgas cards I am bound to get caught somewhere. I guess it is the same with EV charging.

When I was travelling for work I discovered that many ads are voiced and adapted locally. For example, "Kiwi kids are Weetbix kids". And many US ads were given Aussie voices, but these days they tend not to bother as we seem to have accepted US accents. And racially inappropriate actors in Aussie ads, which are simply run here without change.

This is an interesting short film about Broken Hill, made in 1953. Where I lived for 12 years.

The climate change debate continues.

When people say that wind and solar are free, they need to explain. Oil gas and coal are just as free, they are sitting in the ground waiting to be taken. On a cost per unit of energy, oil, gas and large open pit coal can be very cheap. So it is simply a choice based on lifetime capital and operating costs for the whole energy system. We distort that by applying subsidies. -
