Maybe they can use their ecomagination or a percentage of their profits to clean up the PCBs they dumped into the Hudson River basin!

But if water vapor is I believe something on the order of 2,000 times more effective at trapping atmospheric heat than CO2, won't changing over all cars to fuel cells (that emit water vapor) dramatically affect global warming?

There is an app available under Cydia for jailbroken 2G & 3G iPhones; called "Backgrounder" it is an awesome hack that tricks the iPhone into letting an app run in the background when it should not. Basically a "force quit" (i.e. holding down the 'home button' for 10 seconds) does not force quit an app, it instead keeps it running, albeit out of sight.

It is ugly in that the IPhone may perform oddly with say Twitterific or a GPS program running in the background. And if it is the latter, you had better have an external battery pack.

Actually its VC = cancer - the monomer is toxic, the polymer is quite stable and is used in medical applications.

Also, as an FYI the following are known human carcinogens:
Sunlight (UV light), drinking alcohol (ethanol), rubbing alcohol (isopropanol), beach sand (crystalline silica), and Tamoxifen (yes, the breast-cancer drug is classed as a carcinogen!).

A lot of mouth-breathers do not understand anything about toxicology or science or dose-response but want to sound smart, trendy and PC by agreeing with the idiots like those at GreenPiece.

Here's a snap quiz, which is more toxic in a fire:
cotton, paper, wood, wool, acetate, acrylic, nylon, or urethane? The answer might surprise you.

I know is a gov'ment study, so it's probably a lie. Probably funded by the wool industry.

I've said it many times, and I'll say it again. the 'sine qua non' for an electric car to succeed will be if the battery modules are standardized and easily removable; in fact DESIGNED to be removable. That way, if you are low you pull into a "filling station" an attendant pops one out and pops in a fully-charged one.

The one you dropped off is put into a charging rack (along with dozens of others) so it can be reused when recharged in an hour or so. Large warehouses (this is run by the oil companies after all, so they could use their existing gas station and distribution center infrastructure) would carry extra packs so if a "filling station" was getting low on fully-charged packs, they could call up and order more.

The number of battery modules a vehicle carries is dependent on size/cargo space: a small 2-person commuter car has 2 packs, while the larger truck or family van uses 8-10.

This way "recharges;' are as quick or quicker than filling a gas tank, the batteries are easily removed at end of life without disassembling the car, and smaller pack give some design creativity (i.e. not one ginormous pack amidships) and the weight can be distributed for better handling.

On a semi-related note, did Apple drop some apps from the App Store.

Right now there are only 90 pages of iPhone apps, I thought there used to be like 115 pages of apps just for the iPhone?

Any idea why this post keeps getting deleted?

I have been noting this in my own reviews since day 4 - I mean look at FM Touch - yes it is expensive UNLESS YOU NEED a FileMaker Pro database on your iPhone.

A lot of these iDiot reviewers just say "too expensive - 1 star" without owning it. Now Apple, just clear up the NDN stuff and we'll all be happy.

Right about the Audrey. I had one for a while and despite its limitations it showed great potential. This seems less capable...

Guess this sort makes up for GE's polluting the entire Hudson River basin with PCBs...
