Auto "Bailout" Collapses.
This is getting pretty bad really quick already.This past week I heard of 16 people in my family and 5 friends that lost their jobs. 2 of them are foreclosing on there homes and 1 had there car repoed. I'm really starting to feel bad for people like Dave Satty Sly and the rest with the little ones because you can put your self through hard times but its impossible to watch a young one suffer with you. Im hoping for the best. With the country gets a cold, Michigan gets the Flu. That saying has never been truer.

Netbooks
They Are small cumbersome and useless. I have an Acer 1. They are cool at first but a 14.1 laptop is much more worth while. Its too small to use for internet use to me. They all are the same use same processor and chipsets. I haven't used it in a month because it pisses me off to use it. My 12.1 Toshiba tablet is much preferable to use.

An embarrassing / heartwrenching situation
Actually I rarely notice these types of people, but then again i have very little emotion over anything. probably less now. So many people i have respected and looked up to seem to be dieing off. I found out some one close to me was diagnosed with cancer. The only thing i think of is Life goes on.

"I am a Blackberry addict"
smart phones in general help you become productive because they allow you to receive all your emails to your phone they have a calendar so you can put all the times of meetings and project deadlines in them and set it to remind you of these things. also they have internet access so you can research something on the fly. I like windows mobile phones but there are pros and cons to each. and if you dig txting then full qwerty keyboard is just amazing like that.

Back Home In The USA One Day And ...
Was this yesterday? Because the Wednesday before thanks giving is one of the biggest bar nights in America. Drunk people are dangerous when they are on the road so they are protecting your safety. Yes, there is a little corruption in our police system and there is almost a quota system that they need to bring in so much revenue from tickets and DUI/OWI are the biggest money makers. How ever if a City/State sets up a sting and it works then they keep on doing them. If no one is drunk or not wearing there seat belt than they dont make money off them than they no longer do them. These are not bad things nor do they impact your rights. Do you bitch when they search you on an airplane? because that vioates your rights way more than a sobriety check point.

If Oil remains low when the Volt is introduced Will it be doomed?
drive motor: maintenance-free 137hp 3-phase AC induction motor batteries: 26 advanced recombinant lead-acid batteries for high voltage system, 1- auxiliary battery for 12 volt systems charging system: Delco-Hughes MagneCharge inductively coupled magnetic field charging trunk space: 10 cubic feet length: 169.8 inches max. width: 69.3 inches wheelbase: 98.9 inches curb weight: 2,970 lbs. drag coefficient: 0.19 HOW FAR CAN YOU DRIVE ON A CHARGE? I have two driving techniques for my personal EV1: "economy mode" which has given me up to 80 miles range of freeway driving at 65-70 mph, and a "let's see what this thing can do" mode around town that yields a range of 45-50 miles. This has proven to be more than satisfactory for my needs. With over a year and 13,500+ miles on the odometer, I have yet to "run out of juice." http://www.ev1.pair.com/charge_across_amer..._html/faqs.html the last gen ev1 with NiMH have been said to go to 150 mi and proposed mods and new tech could of pushed the EV! past 300 miles on a charge.
