Is there some kind of shitrush on at the moment?
Any news on whether RJ is experiencing mixed feelings about this?

The major problem with hydrogen for motorsport
is that the engines don't go rrrren rrreeeen nrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeooooooowwwwwrn! which is pretty much obligatory.

What noise do they make?

(I helped save b3ta! Pickle Fairy is clumsily dancing away this fear, Tue 26 Aug 2008, 18:39, archived)
The sound of one handed clapping,

Clapping is onamatapaeic,
one hand clapping sounds like clapping.

They probably don't use an onamatapaeic word for it,
so the proverb might hold up to the scrutiny.

electric motors in this case
so more or less silent, with a slight whine at higher speeds.

It's an electric motor
unless there is something broken then they sound like this:






it would be the racing car equivalent of watching people in a silent disco.

I suspect not
since it's hardly green. Fuel cell powered by hydrogen, you say? and we get hydrogen how? hands up, please. no, not you, shambles. Someone else? electrolysis of water, you say? give that man a turnip. Requiring, oh, let's say, some electricity, generated from burning fossil fuels? genius.
(I helped save b3ta! the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Tue 26 Aug 2008, 18:42, archived)
This is why we should get people who want to be green
To run like hamsters in a wheel and generate electricity that way.
(I helped save b3ta! Pickle Fairy is clumsily dancing away this fear, Tue 26 Aug 2008, 18:43, archived)
Indeed
Also,building one of those massive wind turbines uses massive amounts of energy, what with them being made from tonnes of steel and all that

The idea is that you leave it running for more than a few minutes.

Don't most energy generating things require expenditure of energy to build?

(I helped save b3ta! Amorous Badger NAKED BEA ARTHUR PHOTOS 4U, Tue 26 Aug 2008, 18:51, archived)
and of course they generate more during their lifetime than they take to build,
otherwise it wouldn't be worth doing at all.
Except for solar power, which is useful for calculators and caravans and satellites and stuff.

When solar cell factories can themselves be solar powered, that will make them more interesting.

They actually get the power from F1 engines

In other news..
..I rarely post 'my computer is better than yours' posts, but I was amused by this story, and the fact that MS will inevitably try to sell it as The Great Leap Forward when what actually doing is The Great Catch Up With Other, Decent, Browsers.

I know you've specifically discounted me
but (a) electrickery doesn't have to be generated from dead ferns and mammal-like reptiles, and (b) in theory at least, making fuel cells and running electric motors with them is considerably more efficient than asploding fuel in an internal combustion engine.

Just ... you know ... less VRRRUMMMMM! VRRRUMMMMM!

Uh huh.
I noticed you saying water vapour would be a pretty horrid greenhouse gas if it were produced on the same scale as CO2 from private cars, too. Interesting.

I don't particularly have a problem with motorsport anyway.

Shush now.
Allow people to argue with what they imagine you think, rather than what you actually think.
