Even the very low grade local club rugby games can be *fun to watch.

More a bicycle than a car user but my next multi person vehicle will be an electric cargo bike & then a smallish ev.

As an internationally renowned nobody, I can state from my experience, that nobody likes to be lectured to from a nobody*.

George Schaller: The field biologist who helped redefine conservation Some lives seem to belong less to a nation or a profession than to a disposition. George B. Schaller’s was one of them. He belonged, above all, to animals—gorillas, lions, tigers, snow leopards, panda...

Would go the electric cargo bike before an ev - Still consider ev are exciting now musk brand is failing

The Chinese robots doing 4 shifts - once many of the brands consolidate to just a few the variety of choice will follow the demand for simple transportation not marketing department dreams.

Maybe her doco/movie answers that with a positive for being dolt

Did you taste test that batch?

Been thinking around chargers & pondering that the most country towns still have caravan parks.
