Russian Navy Likes It Big (And Heavy)

Fri, 04 Nov 2005 08:25:42 +0000

Maybe the meaning is simply lost in translation, but take a look at the captions for this photo essay of the Russian Navy titled “BALTOPS military exercise: Russia is showing its muscles.” Here, have two big ships, some big anti-aircraft ships, a big landing ship, a big anti-submarine ship, even a big atomic missile cruiser, and add this heavy atomic cruiser. Now how would you feel about captaining the one small landing ship? But take a look, a small ship is still huge.

Fuel Efficient Vehicles

Casey — Thu, 20 Oct 2005 12:05:54 +0000

People looking for oversized pickups, ridiculously large Russian Army trucks, even jet powered speedsters have it easy. But what about people who have some understanding of the Hubbert peak and don’t want SUVs? 50+ MPG cars have been available in Japan for 30 years now, and can be bought used in Canada for under$5000. But US law forbids importing them to the US! Heck, the Smart, the super-efficient line from DaimlerChrysler, has been available in Europe (and now Canada) for about ten years now, but it too can only be imported with a lot of restrictions. Don’t talk to me about Priuses, either. They’re selling on ebay for almost $30,000.

Face it, there just aren’t any affordable fuel efficient vehicles in the US.
