    What are you going to talk about when Bush is gone?

    I don't think I will, but thanks. I'm sick of hearing about Bush's faults.

    couple things here...

    1) the dude talks about how inefficient wheels are, but the bottom of "George's" feet are basically rollerskates as well as teh 2 huge chariot wheels in the carrage

    2)this is not a very good George W. Bush joke as much is it is a GreenPeace type advertisement.

    3)4 MORE YEARS, DAMMIT!

    The wheels on the chariot being dragged, so they are hardly the source of locomotion, as opposed to the wheels in a car. As for the feet of the thing, I would think that was done because of the difficulty of creating the right shock absorbtion system.

    And in terms of environmental viability, this guys general approach, of using electric vehicles powered by solar power, is BY FAR the most sensible approach. Development of mass market electric vehicles is too far behind, and they hold far greater promise than anyhting powered by engines needing fuel (be they power cells or internal combustion engines). Certainly in the warmer parts of the world, houses could be powered with solar power and that would be enough to also power electric vehicles.

    perhaps, but he chose a really bad choice of words in saying "wheels are not found in nature" and "wheels are inefficent" blah blah blah." His beef sems to be with the oil industry and gasoline engines, all which power the vehicle and make the wheels move. Its not the wheels fault they are attached to the motor.

    so he builds a "walking chariot," with at least 14 seperate wheels that i can see (12 rollerskates and 2 chariot wheels,) that are ultimately powered by the sun (solar panels). so what, how the wheels are powered, they are still wheels...? why would he make a ridiculous comment like that?

    And in terms of environmental viability, this guys general approach, of using electric vehicles powered by solar power, is BY FAR the most sensible approach. Development of mass market electric vehicles is too far behind, and they hold far greater promise than anyhting powered by engines needing fuel (be they power cells or internal combustion engines). Certainly in the warmer parts of the world, houses could be powered with solar power and that would be enough to also power electric vehicles.


    i agree with the general premise here, i just think this dude is a few cards short in his deck. and it dosent look good for the "GreenPeace" movement to have weirdos like this as their spokesmen.

    With such viral bias, you're opinion is thus rendered useless. -Shrapnel12, on my "bias" against the SS.
    I've never understood how God could expect his creatures to pick the one true religion by faith — it strikes me as a sloppy way to run a universe.
