The Jetta Sportwagen TDI is rated at towing 2000 lbs, and it gets 40 mpg EPA, so probably around 50 if driven correctly, of course, that's without a 2,000 lb. load.

This tracks your runs, and you can tell when you have had difficulty by when the velocity quickly goes to zero in the middle of a run :P

But if you want to improve your technique, get someone to take video of your riding.

Wow, I just love that high quality photography studio... it looks like they are camping in the conference room of a hotel.

They already did that in Japan I think. I read about it on engadget, but I don't feel like finding you a link.

They need this technology on beds in motels.

Heh, even I voted you up on that.

I don't see what the big deal is about people saying first. I mean if the only thing the person says in the comment is "F!R$T!!111oneone!!!!1111eleven!!1!1!," I could see how that could be irritating, but I actually made a real, valid comment pertaining to the blog post, so I don't think I deserve to be flamed. Besides, I can almost guarantee that there will be about ten people who respond to my original comment with a comment that pertains less to the article that mine.

NUMBERS:
my post was 90 words long (contractions=2), and "first" is only one word, so only 1% (well, 1.1repeating%) of my post was NOT pertaining to the article.

OK, now I just realized that I spent like 5 minutes justifying the use of the word "first" to some people that I will never meet or even see in real life. Oh well.

Wi-fi or any other wireless connection doesn't mess with the airplaine's avionics, unless you are using a scanner to listen in to the radio frequency they are on. The only reason they make you turn off all electronics during takeoff is to ensure that you are listening to the rules so some ignorant person who does something stupid doesn't sue and say he didn't know not to get up and start his daily jog around the plane while the plane is lifting off from the runway.

...first!

First came the Humvee, now the cubbernugvee!

@Striker:
So I guess my 1.25 Ghz Mini won't work then...

So I could dual boot OS X and 360 on my PPC based Mac?
