I was thinking about it last night...when I go to the store, I am making all sorts of healthy choices...picking out fruits and veggies...and th4 some of them meet their death in my fridge because I lose that intensity and "healthy" fe7. If I ride the wave of enthusiasm and get it all done ri5 when I get home...I am good to go!

They are scheduled to go on a campout with the Scouts this weekend...Dad is going with them...and he is already bitching about not wanting to go...he won't have any electronics with him.!

I am, molly! I'll have to take a picture of it. So far I am averaging about 55 mpg.

It was pretty cute - he came by the house yesterday and bragged about how good his mileage was (in the old Prius), something that didn't concern him much when I was buying the gas :-)
9:03 pm
Jillyjill
We have a Ford Fusion Hybrid and our oldest uses the dashboard as a game...how many leaves can he make...lol
9:04 pm

the new Prius has an "eco score"; so far 90/100 is the best I have done

9:09 pm
jmcnrick
so what happens to the battery when the prius dies?
9:09 pm
jmcnrick
hi all i guess i should have dropped by sooner
9:10 pm
uusue2
The hybrid battery? If it's still good it goes into another Prius, I would assume; so far after 10 years both the Prius and its battery are going strong so I have no idea
9:10 pm
Jillyjill
I would think uusue having one 10 years old would show you it doesn't?
9:10 pm
Jillyjill
phone...brb
9:11 pm
jmcnrick
they are suppose to last about 15 years but no one has told me what happens to the battery and the heavy metals when it dies. . . all batteries eventually die
9:12 pm
crosshair
jmc..the chinese open pit mine the rare earth mineral(of which they contoll 95% and use water cannons and sulphuric leech mining to get the 1kg of rare earth materials needed for that prius battery'
9:12 pm
uusue2
I assume they can be recycled, just as the lead-acid batteries in regular cars are
9:13 pm
crosshair
sorry..but true
9:13 pm
jmcnrick
yes crossy i know about the problems with obtaining the heavy metals. . . i am not saying that you shouldn't own a prius. . . they clearly save gasoline which is a very good thing
9:13 pm
uusue2
it's a nickel-metal hydride battery
9:14 pm
crosshair
you are better off getting a volkswagon tdi diesel
9:14 pm
jmcnrick
i have yet to see anything saying what will happen at the end though and i am curious because i would think they would want to explain that part too if it is recycled
9:14 pm
MollyL
I still haven't read a cost of gas vs. cost of your electric bill comparison.
9:14 pm
jmcnrick
i am not sure that is true crossy
9:15 pm
crosshair
look it up
9:15 pm
crosshair
google it
9:15 pm
jmcnrick
well the prius is a hybrid so it is still using gasoline unlike the telsa which is entirely electric
9:15 pm
uusue2
doesn't affect my electric bill, molly, it's not a plug-in
9:15 pm
jmcnrick
i am still interested in seeing where this technology goes
9:16 pm
jmcnrick
and i thought since you are a thinking woman you might have asked the same questions and knew the answer
9:17 pm
crosshair
as of now,it goes nowhere,you can get 1400 km,s on a 50 litre tank of low sulphhur diesel for the volkswagons
9:17 pm
jmcnrick
stats for the top row O please
9:17 pm

Sorry Sue, I didn't state that well. I was referring to the plug in cars, not the Prius.

9:18 pm

most of the metal in the battery is nickel, which is recycled
9:18 pm
jmcnrick
ah well my s-i-l has a tesla and it uses very little electricity and people seem willing to let her plug it in. . . but it is not good for a really long range trip yet
9:18 pm
jmcnrick
engine is my phantom today
9:18 pm
crosshair
sue,you are a smart woman,yopu know as well as i do,the rare earth minerals involved in these new batterys
9:19 pm
uusue2
also the batteries in your laptop, phone, and other electronics are of the same type
9:19 pm
jmcnrick
okay good to know ty uu
9:20 pm
uusue2
anyway if I wanted to have zero environmental impact I would ride a bicycle but then how could I visit all of you? there are trade-offs in everything.
9:21 pm
crosshair
there re indeed
9:21 pm
jmcnrick
true and i for one appreciate that since i love to drive my saab. . . but this is the first time got even a halfway decent answer to that question
9:21 pm
MollyL
I think those are good questions about the batteries, JMC. I've read articles posing similar questions.
9:21 pm
uusue2
the NiMH batteries replaced the NiCd ones, where the Cd is cadmium - the rare earths are much less toxic
9:21 pm
jmcnrick
(although i do have a friend who bicycles across country all the time but i think he is nuts)
9:22 pm
crosshair
the way the chinese mine the rare earth mineral negate any earth savings you may get from the car
9:22 pm
jmcnrick
ty uu i am glad to hear about the switch. . . i am the type that lets other people use new technology until the biggest kinks are out!
9:23 pm
uusue2
also the rare earths are not really rare; the fact that we get them from China is more economic and political than necessary, we have them here too
9:23 pm
jmcnrick
top row E please
9:23 pm
MollyL
I do the same thing, JMC. I watch everyone else line up for the "new stuff" and then wait and see how it plays out.
9:23 pm
jmcnrick
haha this is all a plot of mine to keep you from beating me out from having met the most babblers
9:24 pm
crosshair
ever see open pit water cannon sulphuric acid minbing? they use rain bird emitters to shower the area with sulpuric acid and leech the cemicals they want out of the surrounding substrta
9:24 pm
crosshair
sorry i will stop ranting
9:24 pm
uusue2
I've seen the tar sands and the oil shale too, it isn't any prettier, and we use an awful lot more of it
9:25 pm
MollyL
Good point Sue. I wish we would quit getting things from China and develop ways to create them here.
9:25 pm

I would love to have solar panels and a geothermal heat pump, but the city wouldn't approve the heat pump (didn't understand it although they do now) and I can't afford the solar panels
9:29 pm

9:30 pm
jmcnrick
i was lucky enough to get under the wire for a city rebate (10%) of my solar panels along with the savings and the tax credit it wasn't too bad
9:30 pm

i would love to be off the grid
9:31 pm
MollyL
Hey, we all do what we can, and can afford, to be kind to Ma Earth.
9:31 pm
jmcnrick
i am actually not off the grid. . .my solar panels go down when the electric dies
9:31 pm
uusue2
so yes, I am trading 1 kg of rare earths for ten thousand gallons of gasoline (or so). Meanwhile I teach electrical engineers and tell them that if they want to get rich they need to develop better batteries. Maybe one of them will some day.
9:32 pm
crosshair
better batteries are the key
9:32 pm
jmcnrick
sounds like a more than fair trade to me uu

9:39 pm
jmcnrick
i just try to mention it in the chog from time to time
9:39 pm
uusue2
he's started now, crossy, and will have a total of 10 - they are palliative, though, as the primary cancer is in his pancreas and has spread to his liver, lungs, and bones
9:40 pm
uusue2
they are treating the bones so at least he will be in less pain and can maybe even sit up (his pelvis broke)
9:40 pm
crosshair
well then we must try to make him as comfortable as possible
9:40 pm
uusue2
we suggested a nice single malt :-)
9:40 pm
jmcnrick
would you mind saying his first name . . . it is easier to hold him in the light
9:40 pm
uusue2
he is maintaining his sense of humor (mostly) so that is good
9:41 pm

down to 47 and not up to finishing. Just learned that a mentor of Grant's has gone missing -- very suspicious. My son will be devastated.

Missing is not good ..

No, and his car and everything are still at his home. This man is dependable like anything. ALWAYS on time, ALWAYS there. The kid loves him dearly, and his support of Grant's theatrical work has been amazing.
