Don't count your chicken before they hatch. And if you do land this job,
does that mean you'll be giving up the faux 'vegetarian' diet you've been
touting?

Haven't you always paid for the food you eat?
Or have you been sitting in those long lines for foodbank food?

I swear Americans seem to be obscessed with waiting hours in line for
something these days.

- long lines for good store sales after Thanksgiving
- long lines for free food
- long lines for Covid testing
- now long lines for Covid vaccine

Funny how no one has mentioned all these cars burning gas while waiting
in the long lines. Guess no one cares about the earth's atmosphere these
days.

[Cindy Hamilton]

I'm obsessed with _not_ waiting in line. That's why I grocery-shop at
6 am and we used to go to the movies at the first showing on Sunday
morning.

Nope! I LIKE my Vegetarian Diet! I love not killing animals for my dietary pleasures. And I am a good cooker too!

I do! I drive my 100% electric Nissan Leaf almost exclusively, almost every day! Like I will today when I go food shopping! And I tell people too about the virtues of a 100% electric car! 70 miles per charge, and I drive back home, plug it in just like a big ole PHONE so it;s ready for my next outing! 120VAC or 240VAC! :-)

Not all the cars. Some cars will shut off their engine at stops. I hear it all the time these days: the engines will turn on when the line starts moving. It's pretty cool. I can't say if it saves much gasoline.

So how much is the petroleum you insist on BUYING? ROFL! ;-)

My petroleum bill: ZERO! :-)

John Kuthe, RN, BSN...

[jmcquown]

He's got a well regimented food routine down pat. Garlic potatoes,
baked but not really baked beans, making candy. The occasional mango or
an apple and crackers and cheese. He's a real sophisticated vegetarian.
<I say this with sarcasm, in case some folks can't figure it out.>

Says he's "a good cooker" yet he makes and eats the same thing day after
day, week after week. Rarely varies. B O R I N G. I could cook a
vegetarian diet every day and it wouldn't be a set meal every day. He's
not at all creative.

I fill up my car once a month. I will fill up Wednesday and have just under a
half of a tank of gas left. One of the perks of being retired, I'm not burning
gas going to and from work.

[Cindy Hamilton]

As much as I want. Sometimes I drive around when I don't need to,
just to burn more gasoline.

Not true. You still have your 2nd vehicle (Baby2) that burns gas. You do
use it occasionally at least to keep it running. You might not buy gas
often for it but you do, and so much per week.

[dsi1]

The world has been trying for over half a century to improve the number of miles a car can travel on a gallon of gas. They haven't improved much because cars have gotten increasingly heavy during the same time period. The electric car is like instantly doubling or tripling the MPG of an internal combustion engine car. That's pretty compelling.

[John Kuthe]

More than that My Friend! It's like ELIMINATING the need for petroleum altogether!

My 100% electric car has a license plate INF-MPG because 0/any MPG is ZERO!

And that's exactly how much petroleum I have ever put in my 100% ELECTRIC Leaf! :-)

Ummmmmm, you've got that backward. Cars have become more lightweight
over the years. LOTS of plastics and most, if not all, engine blocks are made
from cast aluminum instead of cast iron.

But I BUY NO petroleum to put in it to run it! ZERO! Hence the license plate INF/MPG!!

And it;s q

[jmcquown]

Do you think the coal just hops out of the ground? That stuff is mined,
transported and processed using "petroleum" powered machinery and
vehicles to the place that generates the electricity that charges your
car and everything else electric you constantly crow about.

It's not a line-item on your electric bill but believe me, you're paying
for it. And you still have that old gas-guzzling van. You seem to
think you're somehow a superior being. I've yet to figure out why.

Jill

[jmcquown]

You think you're not paying for it because you don't pull into a gas
station? Ai yai yai. Your license plate doesn't mean squat. I could
get a license place that says Dr. Jill and a frame with a caduceus.
Doesn't mean I'm a doctor.

Keep pulling the wool over your eyes about the source of your
electricity and how much petroleum goes into the production of it. It's
amusing. :)

He ranks up there with the nitwits who are opposed to hunting because
animals but who have no problem eating meat that have been killed in a
slaughter house. John just plugs his car into an outlet and gets clean
energy and completely ignores the environmental impact of mining the
coal, shipping it to the generating station and burning it.

Why are new cars heavier than old cars?

You're a hypocrite; you have NOT committed to zero petroleum because
you still own and regularly use a petrol driven vehicle "Baby".

You recently posted that charging your electric vehicle only provides
a range of 70 miles. Sounds like your electric car will shortly be on
the scrap heap (along with your various careers, relationships and
being a landlord).

You don't need any car. You never go anywhere that you can't go to
pedaling a bike. And if you want exercise in the winter get yourself
skiis and do real Nordic Trecking, your Nordic toy wastes petroleum
from generating electric to operate it, same as your high wattage
audio equipment for blasting fakeo music on schizzo electric
instruments. If you were really serious about saving petrol you'd
learn to play a piano, castinets, a harmonica, and a ukelele.

Some interesting stuff about the shape/size of old and new cars, overlays photoshopped. A current model Buick is *far* more space - efficient than the monstrous 1959 Cadillac, those old huge 50's - 70's sedans might have been big, but pretty poor ergonomics. Of course it is somewhat "apples and oranges", as the current Buick is not the RWD four - door sedan of yore. What is interesting that many of today's vehicles are shape - wise very reminiscent of 1930's cars.

The Changing Shapes of Cars, 1932-2020: The Buick Encore Overlaid On Some Earlier Cars

"CC reader and Cohort poster Chris Cieslak sent me an overlay he made in Photoshop of a current Buick Encore and a more recent car, inspired by seeing the two on the street. I liked it and encouraged him to make some more, including this one with the classic ’59 Cadillac. Yes, these are perfectly to scale. And guess which one has much better accommodations for its passengers? These Cadillacs (and others from this vintage) are surprisingly cramped, in today’s standards...

Starting with a 1932 Ford. Looks so old fashioned, tall and short...But it’s almost exactly the same height and length of the Encore. And similar ground clearance. But there’s not even a comparison in terms of comfort and space, as the Ford’s body sits way up on top of its frame and is much narrower...

From the comments section:

Let’s compare width now and tell me which is roomier. Those 50s and 60s Caddys will have you beat hands down with headroom to wear your fedora while driving. Plus, traveling over potholes and poor roads is silky smooth, unlike anything available today. Different times.

Paul Niedermeyer
Posted December 4, 2020 at 6:32 PM

No question the ’59 Cadillac is wider. But unless you’re carrying three, which is very uncomfortable, the extra width is quite wasted.

As to headroom, you’re quite mistaken. The ’59 Cadillac has shockingly poor headroom, due to the it sitting on top of a frame and the low roof. Good luck wearing a fedora, unless you’re short. The last time I sat in one a few years back, I was shocked at how cramped I felt. It might have been fairly roomy for 1959 standards, but not for modern standards.

As to the ride, that’s debatable too. If you like wallowing, yes, it wallowed better. But “handling” is not in its brief..."
