  1. Learned to drive in a 47 Ford coupe. 60 HP flathead V8 3 on the tree It got 25 MPG - or close to 11 Km/L It weighed 1500 Kg 2022 Revo 4X4 weighs aprox 2000 Kg Shows how far we have come - NOT 555
  2. Thanks. F-ed up with the 25cm - was thinking of my Forza not PCX, On snowmobiles back home all that was changed, if memory serves, is the spring rate and the weights in the clutch itself. Never heard of pulley halves being modified. But was a long time ago since I messed with that stuff.
  3. Every station I have been to - PT, Ban Chak, PTT - has both grades of diesel. Would be surprised if they are not available nationwide. Altho' many stations have been pushing B10 since last spring Kid saying B10 better - I reply B jet krup

  9. A-bomb led directly to nuclear power and medicine. Kills cancer, among many other things. Genetic engineering making great strides in the food production and medical fields.

Immunology - read of the breakthroughs in 2021 alone, and it has been going on a long time - https://www.life-science-alliance.org/content/immunology-discoveries-2021 Best advance past the 1950's - there ain't no more 'Duck and Cover', no Frankenstein, no monsters under the bed
