save gas
mrwsm asked:


A family member is starting a job to be a Rural Carrier Associate and is required to use her own car. Will a Garmin GPS Navigation system help to save gas by avoiding missed turns, especially when being on new routes all the time?
Any other gas saving tips or vehicle suggestions for Rural Mail Carriers welcome.

For example: A Ford Falcon and a Mazda Astina?

And overall, who do you believe is more inclined to drive to conserve fuel when prices are high?

Earle W asked:

Within a deep well or cavity, water is under greater pressure from the column of air that fell in after the cavity was formed. So it boils higher than 100 C 212 F down in the hole. Would this be a better society of energy consumers if thermodynamics of open container liquids boiled slightly higher than on the surface? Would it help if the higher oxygen pressures in air burned hydrocarbons with a hotter flame?

I know some of you out there don’t remember this, but at one time there was a 55 mph speed limit in the USA. Did that curb gasoline consumption at the time? I know it wouldn’t be cool not to be driving at 70 or 75 mph. But, I would bet if people were a little easier on the gas peddle their mileage would go up. No focus groups needed, just a little common sense.

Fuel, in all forms, has been used since ancient times, right? In putting fuel of every form into consideration, namely: fossil fuel, geothermal, electric, hydroelectric, coal, wood, oil, etc…, How long could all these energy sustain Earth?

In a few years?
In a few centuries?
In a few millenia?

How long?
