    I had a cat that wasn't pooping. The vet did an ultrasound and didn't find anything, so they wanted to perform exploratory surgery. I thought the cat was constipated, so I suggested they give the cat an enema. They said that was risky. I replied, "More than surgery?" they gave the cat the enema. It crapped and was fine. It lived another 10 years.

I rebuilt the clutch and transmission in my driveway in this car two years ago and ended up developing a pretty bad head gasket leak and it's burning lots of oil.

    In highschool I had a buddy with a C4 Corvette, same color but a bit older. A few friends were cruising our cars up the mountain, Z32 300zx, NA Miata 1.8. The first hairpin I hear a grinding noise behind my 300zx, it was the exhaust on the Corvette that had fallen half way off and was dragging behind him. Seeing the rust all over the back of your C4 brought back the memory of wrapping wire around the exhaust to make up for the non existent hangers and broken welds.

      It's not like there is going to be a ban on their use, life will go on as normal, only now they will have to plan on using replaceable batteries packs instead of gas cans, as they slowly move over into using electrical equipment in the future.
      Used equipment will still be up for grabs, as well as their replacement parts.
      Electric has come a long way from only 10 years ago. The lack of maintenance and the far cheaper cost of operations are a huge boone to the operators and business owners.
      Honestly, it's odd that they felt the need to implement the law in the first place, seeing how far electric has come, and with folks swapping over already.

      I was with him until he said "3 year warranty" and I remembered the cr*p Sony put me through with their little SDM-M51 monitors. This monitors design was seriously flawed and would burn out a component after about 6 to 9 months of daily office use. Sony's answer was to keep exchanging them with identical refurbished units until the 3 year warranty expired, then say "Not our problem anymore". The company had 83 of these things, and within a year of the warranty running out, around 50 of those were dead and stuffed in a store room. The ones left were on the desks of people who predominantly worked from home. I went through my logs one day and found that for 83 monitors we'd had over 200 warranty replacements, and one monitor had been exchanged 8 times !
      We moved over to using NEC monitors after that. They were cheaper, the picture was just as good, and they ALL still worked after 3 years.

Why on Earth do you want people to go from freeform content with 100% creative control to a micromanaged mess controlled by the losers over at Discovery so they can add music stingers, fake drama, and 27 commercial breaks?
