If we were to switch to electric cars we would only be moving the source of pollution and fuel consumption. It takes a lot of electric...

I have an interesting scar on my neck where I dropped my butane soldering iron while rewiring my car. I was working under the driver's side dash with my back on the floor and my legs going over the back of the seat.
