chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	Theres a new huge plant here in Nevada that is making the glass panels that use solar power and the Senator from our state, Senator Reed says when utilized properly the solar panels there alone could heat/cool the entire country for a year. We can do it, depend on our own abilitys to generate and hopefully this fuel gouging by other nations has taught us a hard lesson... _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

And those tiny cars are kind of cute anyway. Lawmakers R considering lowering the speed limit and that would help. It might even cut down on auto accidents and save some lives!

gims Member Registered: 01/16/07 Posts: 3404 Loc: USA	I've been checking, esp. since I saw the coverage about this very thing on cable news this very week. They piece had the Texas State Commissioner on talking about how this problem is on the increase... in Texas, it is up 30% for complaints against service stations. He said, if we find this happening to us, to report it to the State Department of Agriculture. This bit of info wasn't in the email I received. So, it is happening, at least in Texas.

Dianne Queen of Shoes Registered: 05/24/04 Posts: 6123 Loc: Arizona	We need power to cool down our swimming pool! Yesterday, I turned on the irrator (sp) and looked outside and there was a line of birds sitting on the fence, taking a shower in the spray. It was so cute. They don't often find water in the desert! I may become the community swimming pool for birds. _________________________ If it doesn't feel good, don't do it twice. www.eadv.net Boomer Queen of Shoes

Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	Dianne, I have a big bird bath in one of my gardens and the birds never use it. Isn't that odd? You should take a picture and share it with your bird! _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	GMA had a news segment about gas stations increasing the cost of gasoline, when customers inserted credit cards into the pump. They suggested folks' look at the receipt after each fill up.

Saundra Member Registered: 11/18/05 Posts: 1796 Loc: Daytona Beach, Florida	Gims, great advice. I hadn't hear that. The only advice I've been able to put to use is getting gas in the car early in the AM before the liquid has swollen from the heat. Meanwhile, here in Daytona, all the pumps I look at are a year behind in being checked. _________________________ What I know for sure is that it's all connected. Saundra Goodman Got Teeth?

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Now that would be a factor! How often do regulators check the pumps? _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf
