gas

I came across this article this morning and wondered if anyone here had any comments on it. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/11/091104123032.htm ScienceDaily (Nov. 6, 2009) — Scientists in Washington, D.C. are reporting laboratory evidence supporting the possibility that some of...

Is Techron the Chevron gas any better for your car? Does it really clean out your engine etc? How would I know it is true? Or not true?

Dateline: USofA: As the Thanksgiving holiday officially gets underway the day before Turkeyday, airlines are reporting few if any glitches and TSA lines at the largest airports are reporting waits of fewer than 20 minutes. Meanwhile, those traveling over the river and through the woods via...

I've seen photographs of nebula that do not appear to have stars. I presume it is because there is not enough mass in the nebula to form stars. My question is, how are these nebula emitting light? I presume the light is coming from ionized gas, but where is the energy coming from to ionize...

Video Wikipedia This guy has some pretty extraordinary claims. Needless to say, I am skeptical.

The president of Bolivia, a populist by the name of Evo Morales and friend of Cuba's Castro and Venezuela's Chavez, ordered government troops to sieze 56 natural gas installations in his mania to nationalize the industry. Hey, Bolivia! Good luck getting any more foreign investment! Linky-dink...

In a closed cooling system will running refrigerant through the system at faster speeds after it goes through the compressor cause it loose more heat than if it was traveling at slower speeds? Much like running cooler air over the pipe causes it to loose heat. Assume that in both cases the only...

Looking at how much mileage can change between "city" and "highway", and even within one of those categories, I wonder if we're overlooking a major opportunity for increased inefficiency. Does it make sense to be trying to get car manufacturers to squeeze out another few percent of efficiency...

Folks, I cannot find any information comparing natural gas to propane in terms of btu efficiency. It's my understanding that there is a difference between the two, so that a device rated at one btu output will actually produce less depending on which fuel is used. Can anyone help? I can't...

I can't tell if this is some guy's fuel-saving scam or if it might be legitimate: http://www.kfor.com/Global/story.asp?s=3390503 [/COLOR][/SIZE] [/COLOR][/SIZE]

Someone just forwarded me this e-mail message this morning. Perhaps it's not really something we haven't heard before.

Given that the gas prices are what they are, should the government try to regulate the price of gas? Do we have a "right" to gasoline?

I dont buy this whole "Chinas economy driving the gas prices up" bull flop. You mean to tell me that in a mere 3 years, China has managed to drive up gas costs by like 80%!?!? CONSPIRICY I SAY!!!

In general I'm a highly skeptical person. Recently I have decided to do my part to consume less gasoline. I bought an old 1989 Civic which gets 35+ mpg. Compared to my old Jeep Wrangler, this is wonderful. So I started reading on the internet of other ways to increase my mileage. I...

Remember the last time gas prices *neared* $2 a gallon, but didn't reach that mark? Everyone got all up in the air. Even our representatives got involved and tried to investigate if it was price-gouging by the industry, or if it was necessitated by the foreign oil market. Remember? Now, gas...

On the July 16th commentary, Randi cited John Kuharik as follows: "For those who don't know, table salt (NaCl) has a melting temperature of approximately 1400°F, and a boiling temperature around 2600°F. There will be very little of "the element sodium chloride" going off into the air as a gas at...

I prefer creamy peanut butter. The crunchy stuff just looks like doo doo to me and I dont find that appetising.

High gas prices... (Fri May 21 09:27:04) Message: ...are a result NOT of production shortfalls, or refinery slowdowns, but rather of the simple rule of supple & demand. You want to be pissed that prices are high at the pump, then bitch out the person across from you filling up that oversized...

Does this latest gimmick hold any promise? http://www.wholly-water.com/magnetizer/super.magnetic.fuel.saver.htm --- Beyond these kinds of systems, what kind of milage improvements can you get applying these techniques: -Underdrive pully systems (designed to use less engine power to drive...

http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,5744,7457952%255E1702,00.html Helium gas will not ignite. It it really was helium it must have been something like the pressure building up in a closed container without a safety valve.

Never mind the fact we also have highest regulation in the nation that costs a bundle, never mind that every other month there is a commission somewhere proving again and again that gouging is a myth, he still comes out and says that. If he gets elected (and I hope he does not), I could just see...

My wife again brought up the hoary chestnut about food cooking better on gas stoves (flame) than electric (coils). You know: "all the great chefs prefer gas flame to electric coil". Is there anything to this? Do the heat distribution properties of metal pans change depending on the source of...

Why is it a crime to use gas on the battlefield but OK to use it against unruly citizens?

I was disappointed to learn that the research project "Gas Discharge Visualization to Assess Bioenergy for Medical Applications" dealt with photographing auras. I thought the researcher might be developing alternatives to the standard method of visualizing "gas discharges", lighting them.
