Finding games that don't require a lot of attention but are good enough to keep playing to kill some time are rare.

Been eager to see you pop in, have a look around and get creative.

I just want to put in my 2 cents here.  With our current technology, EV's are not the way to go for everyone.  On the best of days, EV's have 1/4 to 1/3rd the range of a gas powered car and require specialized charging.  And it gets even worse during extreme temperature climates.  Those who live in inner city housing or apartments won't have at home access to charging.

They would have to first put in charging stations in all apartment and duplex parking lots as well as on all parking spots on street parking. As far as I have seen the only charging stations I have seen to date are max 5 at the hospital and government building parking lots.Also they are not near the front so anyone having an Electric Vehicle with Handicap parking requirements .. have not been thought of.

The cost to own and maintain them is noticeably higher compared to regular cars.  And just like cell phones and laptops, battery life is limited.  The more you charge and discharge them, the shorter the battery life gets.  That battery pack costs about half of the value of the car when it's brand new.

Another negative for those who live in major cities were commutes are shorter, times at street lights longer, and traffic slow.

On the pro side, they do provide instant power on demand, can run almost completely silent and won't produce any harmful emissions during normal operation.  Those few who have outfitted their homes with solar and have fast charging at home can use their vehicles as additional emergency power.

True but isn't that how it always is? The rich have no problem with the latest developments but the poor are left in the dust yet pushed forward anyway and not listened to and told to just use public transportation instead no matter how slow, packed and late it can be.

And one more thing that's both a pro and a con.  Pro: Instant heat and cooling year round.  Con: Shorter range because of instant heat and cooling.

I never thought about that. Care to expand on that?

But I think the biggest argument to owning an EV is pollution reduction.  Here are the facts.  EV's don't produce any emissions during normal operation.  That is true.  But emissions are produced when charging them.  Think about this.  Solar, wind and hydro make up a very small percentage of total energy production.  And the process of making just one of those batteries that power EV's produces as much pollution as letting a diesel engine idle for a year straight. 

Oh ya I forgot about that but I did remember hearing locally how just to MAKE the batteries is proving to produce MORE emissions than driving gas vehicles as it is. Interesting how they have down played that though once people started bringing that up. Another thing is that they are saying that they are finding it so expensive and are already running into a problem with having ENOUGH batteries for the demand how how many Electric Vehicles will be required if the gas vehicle ban will go through by 2025 2035. They extended the ban year because of this major fact at least for Canada.

If you want the best of both worlds.  Go with a gasoline / electric hybrid.

And they keep trying.

Ya but for the win we got a REAL member registration today and I approved him. I hope that is okay with you as I assumed it as a yes

I have learned from my own case to always look for more space instead of "enough" so I don't have to forgo fans and certain video card upgrades.
