You would of thought by now the earth would of cooled sooner or later.

I'm buying new batteries for an electric wheelchair and I have 2 choices 35 AH and 50 AH. Nobody at the dealership can tell me for sure what the difference will make. I charge the batteries everynight so if longer lasting is the difference then I'll go for the 35 Ah which is half the price of the 50 Ah

How fast would you have to drive into the sunset at the equator to ensure the sun would never set? Use the assumption that your mode of transport can go on land, water and so forth.

Just recently toured a cave where they had found selenite and was wondering if it is useful for something other than it looks magnificent, like crystals.

would you finish highschool if you didnt finish it?.would you have gone to college if you didnt go there after high school?if you chose to work did you choose the right profession to start your life in?finally are you pleased with your decisions that you have made in life ,or just pleased that you are alive with your wits still about you so far. hoping that luck stays with you. to have made it thus far whatever your age may be is lucky indeed. as you read this somebody will die every second in the world.hoping that this wont effect you anytime soon but alas it happens to us all.i feel the best way of thinking about this is to enjoy it now as much as humanly possible because we never know when the end will come for any of us.as far as me personally i enjoy smiling ,laughing getting close to people, interactive with them close and personaly interaction. i being a hedonist it pleases me to please my partner that in fact makes up for unpleasant things in life that we are subjected to!!

I'm So Confused

I can't help but think that there are more ways of generating electric power than what we currently do.

What about tide wve generators? I know that the tides are hugely strong and you cannot reist their power, so why hasn't there been power stationes built upon craggy, rocky coastal areas of earth?

How about the geothermal vents on the ocean floor, fast flowing HOT water to power turbines?
deep and not so deep ocean currents?
volcanic heat exchanger, thermocouple electricity?
antarctic 300 mph wind electricity farms? Mountain top fast wind farms?

Has anyone theoretically figured out how to handle and capture the giga watt energies of lightning?
Could lightning strikes be attracted sufficiently and used to charge mountainous battery arrays?

I just wonder if these things could be done to free us from oil dependence.

Opinions and thoughts?

I'd like to know what the chemical formula of this mineral is. Or is it a combination or variety of other minerals? If so, what are they and what are their chemical formulas?
Also, what colors does it come in, and what chemical compounds or elements make it those colors?
Anything else you can tell me is appreciated.

Does glass just become another kind of rock when there are thousands or millions of tons of pressure, or is it like charcoal, where I've heard it can become diamonds, or something else with special properties?
