Personally, I think I'd rather take one of your road trains for a ride. Those are impressive...

The problem with posting links to news clips is that in 3 months they are gone and no one knows what you are talking about. Lets keep the forum about talking real world things, not just to show people that you read the news.

thanks.... Junk.

Vin, I have always thought the solar car race was a Good Thing. I hope someone can find a way to produce solar cells cheaply enough to be more widely practical.

You Aussies have another good race every year, between old Indian and old harley motorcycles - even though they are hideously inefficient and contribute C02 towards global warming.:D

Times New Roman]SYDNEY (Reuters) -


I guess that I will have to spell it out for you. Some people are slow learners! :mad:

1) A link to a news article isn't much good after the article is gone.

2) It is a violation of law to copy and post a copyright article to a website without permission of the copyright owner. Lets try to keep within the laws so the site doesn't have problems.

I am now going to remove the text that you have posted and you have made history on the forums by being the first to be censured.

Thank goodness for PM and e-mail as I would have gotten booted off the site for some of the things I wanted to post. But luckily, I bounced it off admin before I posted who said NO FREAKING WAY (but they enjoyed the pics anyway)
