    I personally have rejected the following threads:

    1. My Dyslexic Dog can Beat Up Your God
    2. Exactly How the South Will Rise Again
    3. Is it okay to Park my Black Prius next to my White Prius?
    4. If the ICE doesn't propell the Prius in Reverse, will I get better MPG if I drive exclusively Backwards?
    5. Can you fit a human body in the cargo area?
    6. What if I remove the limbs?

    And most of the threads created by [you].

    Unfortunately, I think I might have just given Squid some ideas for new threads. :p

    Just kidding. It is Priuschat policy to tolerate almost all threads and remove only those seen as blatantly offensive, spam, or down-right-ill-intended. And if you've read this far, I might as well tell you that I used the 'you' command and have nothing personal against you.

    1. Star-bellied, of course.
    2. No, but advertisers will convince you you do.
    3. I pass.
    4. Yes, but only if you drown yourself right after.
    5. I used to like it. That was 30 years ago. Sort of like Woody Allen films.
    6. I don't know, do you? But it is.
    7. I don't know and don't care.
    8. Can anything be worse than being bogged down by religion?
    9. Please, tell me.

    How about -

    1. Removing Emblems to gain MPG
    2. ANY Honda Hybrid posts
    3. ANY religious topics (unless you can make them invisible to the usual suspects! :D )
    4. Posts that say "This is my last question before I make my purchase"...because we all know that they will post 10 more times after that!
    5. Adding onto a group buy that happened a year ago (A.K.A people who don't read the last post date)

    Ok, my ranting is done!

    1) Can the battery be removed to save weight and the Prius converted to run on the ICE alone?

    2) For those who cross the border on a regular basis.....where are the real storage places?

    Ok - you've piqued my curiosity. Exactly what would happen if you drove exclusivly in reverse? Once you've drained the bat - can the ice spin forward to charge the bat when you're accelerating backwards?

    Damnit... this is going to bug me now... :)

    MG2 propels the car. MG1 converts the energy from the ICE to charge the battery. When battery gets low from being used by MG2 to propel the car the ICE starts, spins MG1 which charges the battery so you can keep going.

    These were posts I tried to put up, but never seemed to appear in the forums:

    1) Prius mods that help lower gas mileage.

    2) Why I traded my Prius for a Hummer.

    3) Can darrelldd be any more smug?

    4) How many Prius owners does it take to change a light bulb?

    5) My Prius is better than yours because...

    and

    6) Extension cords: Do they really improve Prius mileage?

    Peter.

    8. Why do we let people discuss other topics other than the PRIUS on PC. :lol:

    9. Is [you] really a secret agent for The Sciencetology Group, sent here to infiltrate the PC site and convert all its users to one belief system.?
