Ivan check#1 just quoting what john said.
Have to admit if myself and herself decided to share a bath we would save on water but it may still be fun trying to find the soap.

Re: Saving power
I suppose the brains urging people to buy electric cars haven't thought about it to much, even if everyone in the world bought an electric car, which I suspect only a few would be able to afford, where does the electricity come from, and would it then make any difference to the World warming up, Probably help Elan Musk to get to his Planet quicker which would benefit us all.

Des, kit has been estimated that if all the mines sourcing Lithium were to increase their production by 100% there would still not be enough of the stuff to satisfy global needs.
As to showering with a friend, it was not the 1970 problem, it was long begun on UCL well before then.
Just remember if you drop the soap in the shower do not bend over to pick it up.


Happy daze John in Oz.
