Aw man, he came by for just one post. Maybe he is working on his 90% efficient prototype?
In the imagination, people drop the name Tesla and then have no problem with efficiencies above 100%. Little things like the "Law of Conservation of Energy" need not be brought up. Perpetual motion machines for everyone!

David is DAVID and that's the way it is, get over it.

Do not get me wrong, I have no problem with DAVID or his CAPS, was just trying to be funny since Muzhik was poking him about using the reply button.

I am glad to hear there is an interesting story behind why he does it versus someone just trying to stand out for no reason.

The "caps lock" doesn't bother me so much, as some of us, particularly with histories of performing in rock bands, are approaching the age where our kids are mumbling just to annoy us. Using the Caps Lock just helps us understand them a little better.

I NEVER USE THE CAPS LOCK BUT I DO OFTEN USE THE REPLY BUTTON .

I HAVE FOUND A #6 WOOD SCREW DRIVEN THROUGH THE SHIFT BUTTON KEEPS THE CAPS ON ALL NIGHT .

I've always heard that if your caps stays locked for more than 4 hours you need to seek technical assistance from an IT professional or serious, and possibly permanent damage to your hard drive could occur.

Speaking of drive, I'd be all over a little diesel version of an Elio. Great torque, incredible mpg, and long lasting if properly maintained.

I like Diesel ...But a suitable Diesel option would defeat the key reason I am interested in this vehicle . For $6800 , I am thrilled with 84 MPG , 100 MPH , power windows , AC etc . Add a few thousand more for a Diesel , Automatic transmission and a few various accoutrements and the Elio is less appealing .
