Possibly to an early morning crash KSI investigation, Posting at 3:00 PM just after I saw the jam. Earlier I managed to bypass the mess and saw a large group of riders parked on the shoulder just before the QEW / Dundas split.

I assume that's $10K off the residual if you buy the car or arrange to sell it to a friend. There is so much flux in the EV market guessing the financial future is like playing three dimensional chess in the dark.

Did you scrub your hands after all the work? FWIW I've been using a paint pad as a scrub brush for my hands. They're softer than a typical scrub brush and the thousands of fine hairs seem to get into all the fingerprint grooves.

Do we pay a stand by fee if the windmills don't spin and produce power?

So you can build a 160 SF shed, walls and roof without a permit but a deck is limited to 108 SF. Logic?

If the coils are touching the shorted out sections bypass parts of the coil. The series resistance drops so it draws more amperage and creates more wattage. That wattage is spread over the working part of the circuit, the length of which has been reduced. If 10% of a circuit gets dropped out it...

What happened with footings? I kicked around the thought of a simple roof over the BBQ but got informed, hopefully wrongly, that any raised deck or roof structure needed massive footings and posts. What happened to a drilled hole, shovel of crushed stone and a concrete filled Sonotube with a...

I knew a guy that soldered his broken coil back together using silver solder. As ridiculous as it might seem it would probably work. I've tested heating cables by running them cherry red. OTOH our 50+ YO Maytag is on its second coil, an OLD Maytag.

A grand a day and do your own cooking and cleaning?

Yup. My mind immediately went to Schultz and Klink.

Alstate wouldn't talk to me because of my engine size, a 1500 Goldwing. An R series 600 crotch rocket was OK.

They found out that public greed is as bad as corporate greed. One Scandinavian country went the % of income route for fines and the local LEOs let the Ladas through at 30 over while waiting for a bigger fish in an M-B doing 20 over. I don't think money should be used as punishment. How about...

Follow the money. 1) Develop a mini city on a cheaply bought remote plot of land without public transit. 2) Print driver's licenses on paper coffee cups. 3) Sell out the sub division to new drivers. Eliminate #2 and #1 and #3 don't happen.

Crushing fines have a problem. We have tolerated bad and poorly trained drivers for so long that the typical driver is poorly trained and bad on p of that. If we clamped down on poorly trained bad drivers how would people from Brampton get to work?

Condo price crash in B.C.? No problem! The feds will bail you out. https://financialpost.com/real-estate/carney-defends-condo-buying-plan Housing development is a for profit business and like any business, bad decisions cause losses. Auction off the mistakes and let the buyers decide the price.

Ever been to a neighbourhood safety meeting? There are usually several mothers hyperventilating over their precious kid's safety. You know who doesn't care an iota about the kid? The other eight billion people on the planet and most of the animals. The super moms are usually the worst drivers...

Different country but this might wipe off the pretty smile.

The right to repair extortion will destroy the reasonably priced used car market, if it even exists anymore. A winter beater or starter vehicle used to be a 10 or so year old that could be kept running for a few more years by topping up fluids. Now automatics don't have dipsticks or a means...

So if the kid is under 16 who pays the fines?
