ULP to rise to $1.60 for the next two weeks !!

Some how renewable energy is always expensive but petrol is never expensive to madweekend even though the cost of fossil fools are always rising ;)

As well, electric vehicles will always be a bad idea to madweekend no matter how expensive petrol is. Even if you offset your electric consumption using rooftop PV arrays electric cars are still a bad idea to Luddites like madweekend :D LOL

Stop worrying, nail! We've got infinite supplies of oil. Infinite!  ;)

That's why we need an all Australian designed electric car or plugin hybrid.

But where is the payoff to the taxpaying consumer for the the 6 billion dollar green car innovation fund ??

Nowhere to be seen of course !!

Hi Nail,
It always goes up before Easter.
It's a conspiracy by the oil companies that
the Govt. hasn't been told about -
otherwise they'd do something.

So long as the oil majors are making squillions on fossil fuel, you will never get an electric car!

Invent one that that looks like the car of the future, and you will be swimming with the fishies that afternoon.  ;D

Yes - of course - I forgot about the ACCC -
it's been a long enquiry - about 20 years & still going.  :o

this is cheaper than Tel Aviv, we pays NIS7.80 per liter ($2-00)

Hey Gist! Time for your meds, that head of yours is a rockin' and a shockin' again!

Thought I'd care to mention that your $5,000 Indian set of wheels will be a a long stretch from the desk of the Starship Enterprise....wouldn't ya say????

Now that's what I call a spectacular fall from grace!
