After much distress I have done a HUGE technical (stuff you don’t see) overhaul of the website. There is still much fine tuning to do and a lot of other behind the scenes work before its fully ready. At least the forms and other stuff is working again ! Again the promise of more interactive content is being worked on. Just remember this site is still fully funded by myself hence it takes additional time to update and work on.

Following on from my last entry petrol companies have a lot to answer for too. After the fuel crisis of the 70’s alternative energy companies where bought out by the fuel conglomerates and essentially competition to oil was eliminated. I can only imagine if development was continued we’d certainly have viable alternative fuel sources. Li-Ion batteries for example would have been available by the late 70’s and certainly more efficient solar cells, even ethanol and hydrogen would now be common place. Nitrous Oxide – NOS would be performance norms rather then exceptions. Maybe we would have seen a Hayabusa type bike in the 80’s rather than at the turn of the century. (History isn’t such a boring subject after all.)
