No, houses are flammable too. They’re surrounded by invasive and extremely flammable eucalyptus trees.

The main reason for the fires in Australia were eucalyptus trees, they’re extremely flammable. Eucalyptus trees are foreign to California. They were brought over by Australians. The fires aren’t California’s fault.

Final Countdown

My roommate, an iPhone user and English only speaker, left his TV on the Spanish channel with his phone right next to it and left for work. When he came back home and checked his phone, all his Facebook and Twitter ads were in Spanish. This was at least 10 years ago.

2020 Hyundai Elantra SEL 50k miles. After the Impala’s electrics started going out at 200k I wanted a vehicle that I knew the maintenance history of. I got a good deal on a demonstrator model with 3k miles on it, right before the market went to hell – I figured it would and I needed transportation because I went back to work.

I just needed a go box, but wanted car play. I knew the Elantra was one of the best selling cars, so in the long run parts would be available. I took a gamble on the CVT transmission because it’s Hyundai’s first go at it with this model, but all my other options were CVT.

It’s still a young vehicle, but it’s standard change oil and make sure it has fuel. That’s what I wanted.

My other half is more progressive. A belt-driven long range e-bike charged by solar.

Posted a minute before this one. Nice catch.
