A few days ago TT posted a link to all the old Popular Science Magazines. It got me to thinking about technology and energy conservation and why we are so lame about it. It seems that a lot of this technology has been around for decades.
Years ago, after reading a Popular Mechanic's Magazine article on water injection for your car I actually made the thing and installed it on my car. It worked (as long as it wasn't freezing out) and increased my gas mileage as well as cleaning up my exhaust.
My point is that the technology is available, the need has been here for quite some time, but for some reason it gets suppressed. The February 1940 issue of Popular Science had articles about solar heat and solar electric panels and here we are 60 years later just starting to wake up.
