List, May I add a little bit of maths to the recurring "gas and mileage debate " ? A recent article in Science magazine gave a new (?) insight on the numbers involved and their significance. Using Miles per Gallon might not be a very efficient way to evaluate fuel efficiency. Liters/100km (or, for that matter, Gallons/ 100Miles) seems to be more adequate. I don't have the original article, but I found out this on the same subject. Sorry if this has already be covered : http://gas2.org/2008/06/20/the-illusion-of-mpg-is-it-really-a-true-measure-of-your-cars-mileage/ and, what's more, here is a nice converter for those interested : http://home.comcast.net/~plutarch/mpg.html?input=07&output= May I add, but that's another subject, a big THANK YOU to the contributors and caretakers of the PTG list for its public character ? I am a long-term lurker on this list, found out lots of informations about numerous subjects (mainly piano, but also human relations, ethics, society, and humour as well. I'll keep on reading it everyday, as long as you will keep it open. I guess I am not the only long-time lurker who feel thankful for you piano wizards. Cheers ! Jean Debefve musicien amateur, Feluy, Belgium PS : Pierre (Gevaert), Stephane (Collin) what about a PTG chapter in Brussels ? And then a BIG convention of course so that I could put a face and a voice on some of those piano wizards... ;-) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
