Yet another Chilean mine collapse - but this time in New Zealand.

They must have dug it VERY deep (and at an angle) for it to reach New
Zealand, Shirley?
Coach
Er, I was meaning "Chilean" - as in, the thought of another collapse
sends me cold. Please learn how to read.
Jeremiah Bullfrog
Your backpedals are getting worserer and worserest.
Coach
How can the fact that YOU failed in interperate a simple post mean
that I am backpedalling?

How did a Chilean Mine get to be in New Zealand? And if it is "yet another"
collapse here was the other Chilean Mine in New Zealand?
Brad
No, I didn't. I heard on the ABC Radio News first, I *read* it here
second.

It really just means you're being your usual smart-arse / fuckwit self.

Coach
I said it was another mine collapse, but THIS TIME it is in New
Zealand - hence suggesting the other one was NOT in New Zealand.
Isn't english your first language?
Coach
That's because you obviously weren't reading aus.tv until some time
after I made the post. The ABC were very slow to report it.
Coach
> no i didnt hear it here first,i heard it on the news first.
I'm not surprised seeing that you are now replying to my post more
than 5 hours AFTER I broke the story.
Coach
Considering it happened just before 4pm EADST today, I find that
impossible to believe. There goes your credibility.
David8
----------
Your exact words were: "Yet another Chilean mine collapse - but this time in
New Zealand".
That clearly suggest that there is a Chilean mine in New Zealand.
What I am asking is how it got there, and if it was "another" where was the
first?
Perhaps the problem is with your expression.

No, the problem is with your comprehension. As I've already
explained, the word "Chilean" means my heart went cold when I heard
the news. I hope that both helps AND informs.
David8
----------
You have a heart? Whose is/was it?
BTW, I comprehended exactly what you had expressed.
Coach
So in other words, you are admitting that you got hook, line and
sinkered?
David8
----------
There is a fine line between fishing and standing still. You ain't goin'
nowhere.
Coach
Especially since my computer is a desk top and not a laptop, and I'm
on dial up. It's a bit hard to go anywhere.
David8
----------
Have you heard of extension cords?
Coach
Have you heard of destop computers? They are not the most portable of
devices - especially the old ones.
David8
----------
As I recall the Commodore 64 wasn't that big. With a wireless modem and a
well trained mouse in an exercise wheel for a power supply it would rival
any laptop.
Coach
Now I'm starting to think you're just trying to be silly.
David8
----------
It's one of those "hook, line and sinker" moments. Now I see why you get so
much personal satisfaction from them :)
Coach
See, I knew you were trying to be silly. The idea of a mouse using a
exercise wheel to generate electricity gave it away. The wheel would
have to be attached to a generator for that to work, and then it
wouldn't be portable or reliable.
David8
----------
You could use a solar battery or generate power from your bicycle.
Coach
What's a solar battery?
David8
----------
Google it.
Essentially it's a gizmo you hold out in the sun trying to convert sunlight
into electricity - apparently.

What ever happened to Richard Carlton?
Coach
I think you'll find that is a solar panel, not a solar battery. The
panel creates the electricity which is then stored in the battery. I
David8
----------
It's a power supply, isn't it? Maybe I was thinking of a suppository you
could insert into an orifice to make it appear as if the sun shines from it.
Besides, my statement to use a solar battery was not incorrect. A solar
panel would be quite useless by itself.
Coach
Not if it is a regulated panel. You can use a regulated panel without
a battery to supply 13.8 volts directly to appliances. And if you
supplied that to an inverter, you could power a tv, computer or any
electrical appliance up until about 750watts whenever there is
sunlight. You really don't know much about camping do you?
David8
----------
No, I'm not camp. However I fail to see how you reached your conclusion
based on a simple power source for your Commodore 64.
Coach
I don't have a commodore 64. I USED to own a commodore 128, but that
was many years ago.
Brad
A regulated panel is a solar panel with a regulator. If you find it
acceptable to combine the two components into one device and the one
name, then it is also acceptable to combine a solar panel and a
battery into the one device and call it a solar battery.
Coach
So by your logic, if your car has a flat battery and won't start, and
you connect a solar panel to the battery to charge the battery, it's
acceptable to call it a solar car? You really didn't think that one
through did ya Brad? .
David8
----------
Logic is an organised way of going wrong with confidence.
As usual you have changed the parameters of this discussion to suit your own
argument. That does not follow the requistes for debating. Fail. Or to put
it in a way that you can understand, "Strike One".
Coach
Isn't that how this works?
David8
----------
Perhaps in your head, but it's not good etiquette. It's something that was
started by a former poster TG'sFM (This Group's Founding Member) who
believed that anything goes.
Now play nice.
Coach
Shirley if the groups founding member made that rule, we should all
respect that..
David8
----------
Don't call me Shirley.
Respect direspect? Pfft.
Brad
Brad
If you are happy to call a purpose-built panel/regulator combination a
'regulated panel' then I am happy to call a purpose-built solar panel/
battery/car a 'solar car'.
Coach
OK, so it's clear then. You lost that debate. Nobody in their right
mind would call a normal combustion engined car a "solar car" just
because you once charged the battery with a solar panel.
David8
----------
There you go again. as usual changing the parameters of this discussion to
suit your own argument. The discussion mentioned a car and you assumed
(incorrectly) that it was a combustion car. It could have been a toy car
which often runs on batteries. "Strike Two".
If you get more strikes you'll look like a Zebra :)
