    cool cwiz

    is not to cool today. Just cruel.

    Question 2: 25% of the chemical energy contained in petrol is wasted by a combustion engine. True or False?
    you chose True
    the answer is: False (Note: A cat has 4 rows of whiskers on its face.)


    That was after I got to the site, clicked on the quiz first, answered all 3 correctly (I'm the unregistered). This after being absent for a couple of wks.

    So, I registered and got the next three wrong. Now I'm a dummy? Sigh.

    Fact is that the internal combustion engine is a bad deal for us. Reason being is that of the btu's of 1 gallon of gasoline used in an engine, are basically divided into thirds. 1/3 of the heat produced is used to propell the wheels. Another 1/3 is removed in the cooling system. And the other 1/3 goes out the exhaust pipe.

    The way we build has a greater impact on our comfort, energy consumption and IAQ than any HVAC system we install.

    Ya, but not just the bad luck guy in that he always has bad luck, but rather when Joe showed up in town all his bad luck passed on the anyone near him. Because of that he was avoided like a leper.

    Too bad a whole generation missed out on Al Capps genius at satire and down home humor.

    Well gat

    Maybe the answer guys were a zzzzzzzzzzing at the time. Personally I would have a real problem with some quiz telling me that I am wrong when I know better. Hey gat, drop me a line sometimes, here or at work.

    Yea, this one got me too, last week...
    Was having the best week since joining..
    the answer was missing the 1st 'T' from the word THE - got it wrong.
    This was on sunday - ended up tied for 1st ( 1st time ever )
    If the answer had been correct I would have had 18 & been #1
    I am now emotionally scarred for life...
