wot about the companys making electric cars? they hate fuel because its better than electric and if fuel was stopped then the electric car comapnies would be rich and fuel company down low until they make something better than electric and become rich and so on

also if they stopped making fuel it would do the planet a hell of a lot better since:
1. were running out of oil
2. were killing the planet with our fumes

so i'd like to see an electric 4x4 (fully electric)

call an ambulance . when they get there have them take you to the lhs on the way to the hospital to get the nitro and parts needed.then let them take you on in to the hospital to get the migrams ,ingrown toe nails , broken toe,and soar back, looked at . while your there get them to feed you . and by the time they are done your parents will be home . and all your problems will have been solved . come on use your brain . think out side the box .

NASA uses electric 4x4's vehicles to travel in outer space.

"The Apollo Lunar Roving Vehicle was an electric vehicle designed to operate in the low-gravity vacuum of the Moon and to be capable of traversing the lunar surface, allowing the Apollo astronauts to extend the range of their surface extravehicular activities. Three LRVs were driven on the Moon, one on Apollo 15 by astronauts David Scott and Jim Irwin, one on Apollo 16 by John Young and Charles Duke, and one on Apollo 17 by Gene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt."

1, they used electric cause its cheaper and would have no fumes on the moon
2, fuel is a liquid so if u put liquid on the moon it would just float so the engine wouldnt exactly be too good for it
3. DID THEY REALLY LAND ON THE MOON? UNSOLVED

1: they used electric cause it was rechargeable fumes had nothing to do with it
2:they could have pressurized the fuel tank no floating
3: well it may be unsolved but we know for sure no one from Australia walked on the moon

Not to mention, electric needs no oxygen. An IC motor on the moon is about as useful as screendoor ina submarine. No oxygen, no go.

so you live on a mountain top with a telescope that can compensate for the earths atmosphere.
also a scope that powerful would be huge . take your scope put a postage stamp 30 miles away on a basket ball and tell me what you see.[8D]

at leat 14 ages right [8D]
