I am thinking that due to the current state of the economy the more price comparison websites are made available, the more help this is to people trying to save money? on fuel, gas, electricity, food and even cars- car insurance.
What does everyone else think?

Large nuclear reactors power cities. Smaller ones power submarines, aircraft carriers and even some freight ships. Nuclear material is used to power satellites. These ships aren’t exactly small but then again the reactor is not the entire ship. how small can these reactors be made? can they be made of the size to power individual buildings, homes, or cars? what is the limiting factor for a nuclear generator?

This doesn’t seem like a lot of money, but I do not believe that it will be this amount, but it will be more. Food will go up because the super market pays lights too. Your electric car will cost more to operate.. Everything will go up.
The real way to stop pollution is to turn off lights, TVs, and A/C,s and live without electricity, cars, and any modern appliances. We could all do them a favor and commit mass suicide.. that would make them happy. The economy is a mess & people do not even have homes any more so who is going to pay for all this. Like the health care bill, it is the wrong time to do this.

Actual unemployment when you count those whose benefits have run out is at 17%

So I’m writing a paper for class on how cars work, and I have to have things about electronic detonation (so spark plugs), as well as Magnetos and generators (so Dynamo). I get how Magnetos and spark plugs work together, but every place I’ve looked seems to have the same info about Magnetos and Dynamo. Namely that they turn mechanical energy into electrical. Can anyone clear this up for me?

Do any generators or powerplants have transmissions the way vehicles do? If not, why is it that cars need transmission but generators and powerplants don’t?
