    I had guessed there was a missing "in", but I couldn't help but notice how the typo gave the words a deeper meaning, however unintended.

    Yeah, that reality/fantasy ratio is something we all need to work on. ;)

    Clearly you. Hve not spent any time in the FHoPolitics!

    Personally the solar forum that I participate is a bit better. The technical information is as good or better, but most importantly, there is little tolerance from the mods for disruptive behaviour, and absolutely no allowance for talk about politics in any form.

    There has been a suggestion over there to allow a sub forum like FHoP, and I have argued strongly against it. There plenty of places on them to talk about politics or global warming or if Obama is a socialist, but few places where those are not allowed. By not allowing our bias in, we tend to have better respect for each other, and we don't therefore have to filter peolples opinion on solar matters knowing that they may have a political or environmental bias. Thier suggests, conversations and opinions send on thier own merits.

    Unlike here, where there are several people whose opinion on things Prius I would not trust simply because of the opinions expressed on FHoP (or politics) (and to be fair, there are people who may feel that way about me for similar reasons!) we have none of that on the solar forum.

    That said, I enjoy PC, and the first time I have a problem ( which is almost never) it is the first place I go to.

    As a fellow Jeep TJ owner I could not agree more with your statement,

    "On the other hand, nothing makes a Prius feel more like a luxury car than driving a short wheelbase Jeep." lol

    Going from 48 mpg to 15 mpg does get your attention also.
