    Thanks for the recommendation. We ordered one and it came in today, perfect for the 18 year old nephew at college. I kind of wish I would have ordered one for me too...

    The Right Stuff on Disney app/Nat Geo

    We’ve been watching. I like the movie better, but this tv series “modernizes” the story somehow. Not a grand slam, but easily a triple.

    Will CNG ever be mainstream?

    I actually think that if CNG vehicles will survive, we will move away from refueling at a public station, and move to CNG refueling on demand at home. We already have natural gas plumbed to most houses, and air conditioners units are gas compressors. So fundamentally we have the technology for...

    Help...iPhone for kids

    If it’s for primarily or entirely at home use, limit the data (I.e., turn it off at the plan level) and set usage controls on the router. Most routers have multiple network IDs possible, so use a second network for him and lock it down for data. App-wise, the on iPhone controls are generally...

    Anyone else watching the SpaceX Dragon launch?

    I decided to be an engineer after seeing a space shuttle launch live when I was young. I watched the scrub earlier this week, and gathered the family to watch the launch this afternoon. That much raw power never fails to inspire.

    Anyone here ride a Motorcycle?

    “Loud pipes save lives”... and cell phones kill motorcyclists. Both can be (and are) true. For me, riding is enjoyable, but a lot more work than it used to be. Living in the overpopulated suburbs has made finding those beautiful car-less winding backroads difficult.

    Funny that they're going after these drug companies

    And, this is pretty darn cheap “insurance”. The public response costs the shareholders more than the actual monetary fine. Rochester Drug Co, had a $20 million dollar fine, that will be paid out of 5 years. From 2012-2016, they had over $1Billion in sales. 2% of sales is significant, but not a...

    Wife has a Hyundai Santa Fe Sport (no 3rd row), about 5 years old now. Would not buy again.
