    General EV Discussion

    On the other hand I recently spoke to someone who had purchased a BYD Sealion 6, and they said that in the first 3 months of owning it they had yet to put petrol in. And it only gets charged from a standard 240v wall socket.

    SMH article today reported that WSI has been designated as a primary gateway airport under air rights agreements. With a provision to review after 12 month of operation. Way to shoot the place in the foot.

    What cheeses me off

    And Shot Scope, and every other tracker. I'm merely pointing out that your statement above that a 3-wood alone is a panacea to driver woes is false. Yes, Tiger used his 2 iron and occasionally 3-wood to great effect in 06, but he's freaking Tiger and would have outdriven half the field with...

    What cheeses me off

    That's actually a furphy, recreational golfers are only 1-2% more likely to hit the fairway with a 3W vs Driver, yet you give up distance. Just hit driver assuming that the extra distance won't put you into a hazard.

    NYT reported that there were only 19 controllers on that night with the target being 31. DEI should actually expand your hiring pool not limit it.

    Transit Query Heathrow

    Also consider the TI implications on a misconnect. Based on my reading of the Amex insurance terms, they won't pay out on a delay of less than 4 hours, so your separate ticket would need to depart after 0955 for insurance cover.

    World Changing Conversation at the Mercure Sydney Macquarie Park

    Reminds me of the lady in her 60s to 70s in the MEL International J lounge who was proceeding to call her entire contacts list at a volume the entire lounge could hear, albeit not on speaker, to inform them that she was in the lounge and off on a holiday to the US for several weeks and to not...
