  1. Sydney " did " have a monorail ' train ' on the side of buildings . A great draw card for tourist . I doubt the ' new ' trams will make much impact to the tourist trade . spacesailor
  2. White ' was ' bad in the Old days of heavey fog . spacesailor
  3. Please check and refute my dates . From those quoted sites . if they are wrong !. Please correct THEM . spacesailor pS : National Science, has 760 m y. on it's Articles. The Proterzoic age . 2.5 B , ending 541 M years
  4. you're right ! . It was 50 Billion years in the Proterzoic age . first proposed by an American, now backed by sciencetific evidence. Britannica Encyclopaedia. And Wikipedia, have articles on it , & so have many other institutions. spacesailor PS : just before the " DreamTime " .

  6. Those ' glacier's ' of 50 million years ago had people Praying to their " idol's " of all persuasions to " let the sun shine ". Then " snowball Earth " got warmer ,& the people ( of Old ) were pleased , and gave thanks . spacesailor
  7. I'm on a single power tariff. No discounts of any type . And have been told not to update my Old metre box , or could end up with expensive " smart metre " . ( metre to measure ) . spacesailor
  8. Any one care to calculate my EV fuel cost ! . No solar as not eligible for any Incentives. NSW rates 30 cents per kilowatt-hour. I ask , as my neighbours Tesla gets a full charge once a week from his employer . Only saw a couple of " home " charging times . I would be " home " charging permanently . Try for Tesla model 3 , as per neighbour. spacesailor
  9. Those words That have no written application. Are a horrid because I cannot write them here . I can speak a word but not pronounce it . There is a name for that . spacesailor
  10. ICE cars are over complicated. With engine " computer "/ gearbox / steering / breaks . All with separate modules, then seats are now computerised, I almost forgot the " climate control " . Not even a key to start that motor or the door to sit in the car . spacesailor
  11. Specialised trained mechanics ! . Are never minimalist. Ever . spacesailor
  12. It ' sounds ' ( froot ) better than ' frunk . AI agrees & changed it frankly to ' front ' . spacesailor
  13. In that case my daughter couldn't have the X in her garage as it's too low and too narrow. Cannot open the doors fully to get out easily, the passenger, gets out before driving into , Plus you can't reverse a wagon in , as the garage far end has the staircase taking a piece of the upper one third , Of the back wall . spacesailor
  14. Be careful of what is above you , when opening your doors . Normally we have to watch the sides . spacesailor
  15. But I , like changing the gears ! . It makes Me feel I'm in control. Not the A bloody I, that I have to disable when I need full control . Not waiting for AI to help stop my two ton 4X4 hurtling down a very steep hillside , when " off-roading ". spacesailor
  16. If the world had gone a different way . It would be a small delay ' connecting the trolley poles ' onto the free public overhead " trolly-bus " wires . batteries not required . spacesailor
  17. Using your EV for house power ! . Not with a Tesla , So I won't borrow the neighbours Tesla , during the next power outage . spacesailor
  18. 2 minutes in the neabours Tesla . I didn't feel much vibration . after hitting my head on The low door-frame . LoL spacesailor
  19. Noise ! . I have had " extractors " fitted to the wife's Pajero . As everyone was saying , it was noisy, with a hole in the exhaust. At certain revs ( 4500 & 5000 rpm ) I now hear the exhaust note clearly. So to my damaged ears , it is noisier. spacesailor
  20. I meant " electric cloths dryers ". Even worse would be no dinner ware & cutlery. With-out your " dishwasher " , my wife's dishwasher has been working for 60 ish years . ( me ) . spacesailor
  21. Like the " car parks" this " Sundoctors " don't take ' debit ' so they tell me . Guess what . Two more customers are seeking a " Bulk-Billing " cancer clinic. spacesailor
  22. Yes ( in Australia ), but I was referring to Jerry-Atrick,s Semi-detached houses photo . When we are all , on the one power source . watch the price sky-rocket . As I write this , the TV is telling me " electricity is going up " . how well , do ' airdryers ' work , during a " brown-out " . spacesailor
  23. Cats ! . ' Curry Chicken ' yum yum . LoL spacesailor
  24. I have a ' gripe ' my cancer clinic is now charging $85 for the 15 minute check up . Now my gripe . They don't take cash . Only " credit card " , I told them outstraight " NO card " so cash or free , as it was for my last appointment . The other patients took my money, & payed my bill , ( by their card ). Leaving me short of the medicare rebate . " such is life " . spacesailor
  25. I have noticed. A fairly large number of vehicles Are not insured, or at best " third party only " I am thinking if joining them . Full insurance is out of hand, high premiums & Lots of loopholes, to loose your car & no payout. I only had one car stolen , NRMA retook six months to payout but only after I refused to get the replacement car " full comprehensive insured " . As at that time I hadn't been payed or even acknowledged as a customer. My Mitsubishi delica they refused to insure as it was the same as a RR .An import . spacesailor
