GM EV1

That makes absolutely no sense. Why do you insist on putting your ignorance on public display?

The EV1 was never sold, dummy

Senile Dementia Symptoms

Disease and other age related dementia cause many problems for patients and their families. Many problems are due to memory loss.

Recent memory loss. Everyone forgets things for awhile, but remembers them later. Dementia patients often forget things, and never remember them. They ask the same question repeatedly, each time forgetting that you already answered it. They don't even remember they already asked the question. Difficulty performing familiar tasks. Patients might cook a meal but forget to serve it. They might even forget cooking it. Problems with language. Dementia patients may forget simple words or use the wrong words, making it hard to understand what they want, causing an outburst of anger directed at the person they're talking to. Time and place disorientation. Patients may get lost on their own street, forgetting how they got to a certain place and how to get back home. Poor judgment. Anyone might get distracted and forget to watch a child closely for a short time. Dementia patients might forget about the child and just leave the house for the day. Problems with abstract thinking. Anyone might have trouble balancing a checkbook from time to time; dementia patients can forget what numbers are and how to use them. Misplacing things. Patients may put things in the wrong places =97 an iron in the freezer or a wristwatch in the sugar bowl. Then they can't find them later. Changes in mood. Everyone is moody occasionally, but patients may have fast mood swings, going from calm to tears to anger in just minutes. Personality changes. Patients may have drastic changes in personality, often becoming irritable, suspicious or fearful. Loss of initiative. Patients may become passive, not wanting to go places or see other people. Even if your loved one has these problems, they are caused by

--Prescription drugs interactions and side effects --The combined effect of weight loss/gain and medications --Dehydration --Vitamin B12 deficiency --Falls and concussions --Depression --Alcohol use

Yes I do and it takes ages sometimes. I personally try to stay level headed about things most of the time. Obviously I am pro Prius and pro BEV (though I own neither) but I am aware of the downsides. I read somewhere a study talking about the fuel savings ROI vs. watthour of battery capacity and it falls off fast as you go from full hybrid to PHEV to BEV. In other words a Prius has a smallish battery pack and reduces fuel usage by 50% whereas a BEV has a huge battery and cuts it 100%. I don't like PHEVs because I am the type that would end up having the car have to burn fuel just to keep what is in the tank from going bad.

I think the general public needs to be better educated about the world around them and I think companies should stop using blanket terms in inappropriate ways such as:

Oil labeled as synthetic when it really isn't (Castrol Syntec)

Hybrid vehicle referring to everything from the Toyota THS/HSD full hybrids to the GM BAS system.

One can not deny the truth LOL

Why do you think our friend Canuck57 suffers from dementia? I think he is simply uninformed, not mentally ill. That is why he keeps telling us the sky is falling LOL

I just watched a show on the History Channel where they claimed that the B-17 bomber went from drawing to roll-out in little over a year.

Of course, that's back when we had real companys, and real craftsmen working there.

More importantly, it was way before CAFE, the EPA and the NHTSA got into the car business LOL

It is what GM does best. Loose money.

How ironic, you SO prove my point.

When congress enacted emissions controls, it's rumored that Detroit hired a hundred lawyers to fight the law... while Japanese automakers hired a hundred engineers to solve the problem.

You must admit that modern cars are safer in a crash run cleaner, with less emissions start and run reliably with less routine maintenance.
