Good incentives for wind and solar manufacturers and installers, though.

BTW - anyone install solar PV (photovoltaic) panels on their roof top yet?

I have been trying to get SWMBA to pop some on my roof.  She does not see the 
value.  I like the idea of off grid for small power.  My roof is perfect with a 
full south/southwest swath.

Neighbor up the street built himself an eco house with 8" foam insulation, 
solar water and PV, cisterns for rain water, pervious asphalt paving, PV attic 
fan.  Stupid thing is, he kept tall trees on the lot that shade his roof until 
well past 1300, so his generating capability is limited.  Next door has big 
trees too, and they shade from 1600 on.

Oregon is full of idiots.  Apology to any residents on the list.

They used to have a nuke plant, but decided to take it off line and destroy it. 
 Then they sold their generating ability to Buffet, so he and Berkshire could 
make tons of cash.  Warren also purchased the trains that haul coal to the 
ports in WA to be sold to the orientals.  Washington closed down their coal 
fired plant and only permit NG plants and are trying to get off nukes.  We are 
tossing up lots of wind farms, while taking out generating dams.  City of 
Seattle is on a mandate to purchase electric cars instead of LP/NG or dino 
fuels.  This is going to be a mess.  No way are the solar panels going to pump 
enough juice to keep us warm in the winters.

Oregon is a beautiful place, but they recently enacted a landmark
Anti-Coal Bill into law. The new law will wipe out coal-generated energy
supplied to the state in phases through 2030 and requires utilities to
provide half of customers’ power with renewable sources by 2040. Note
that the regulators do not consider dams and their water to be renewable
resources.

This most assuredly will significantly raise the electric rates paid by
Oregon customers. Something to keep in mind when you look for a place to
live ...

Wind driven = homeowners

Rising = flood

Homeowner’s would not cover rising water, i.e., storm surge, pool overflow, etc.

We’re roughly 40 feet above sea level, but within about 1/3 of a mile of a 
major stream, the Alafia River.  For a storm surge to make it to 40 feet at 
this point on the Alafia, which has a flood plain width of about a mile at this 
point, the better part of the west coast of Florida would have to be under 
water.

There is a “sea wall” at the back of our property that goes down to a level of 
about 25 feet, and at one time some years back when we had several hurricanes 
move through the area (2003?) there was water lapping at the base of the sea 
wall.  The sheer volume of water it would take to fill the river basin to the 
point where our house would be threatened is well beyond anything that could be 
caused by a hurricane or associated storm surge.

Plenty of places in Florida would hit that, but they wouldn’t be terribly close 
to the beach, maybe 45 minutes to an hour.  Proximity to the Gulf is a double 
edged sword.  It’s more expensive and you’re more likely to be in a flood zone, 
which will drive your insurance rates sky high.

I’m 45 minutes to a hour from some really nice beaches, like Anna Maria Island. 
 My flood insurance is $400/year and is not mandatory.  I buy it because it’s 
the only thing that would prevent my house from being totaled in a hurricane.

Rising water versus wind-driven water is the difference.

Cost of living here is decent and there are no income taxes. Sales tax is about 
6-7% depending on where you live.  The Gulf coast is far better than the 
Atlantic coast for a lot of reasons.

If you want details or have questions, drop me a PM.

Re: [MBZ] Italian tune up with a turbo

2016-03-20 Thread Scott Ritchey via Mercedes
My main retirement home (aka house) recommendation is to keep fixed costs low.  
Low is a relative term depending on your retirement income but in my case it 
means:  zero house payment, property taxes and insurance each below $2K a year 
(pretty-much rules out blue states) , and basic electricity and HVAC below 
$200/mo., average (pretty-much rules out far north).  Most other things (food 
cable, phone, internet, etc.) can be dealt with (or not) later.  Consider also 
state taxes and the availability of local health care.  Beyond that, what do 
you like (mountains, urban, rural, ocean, etc)?

No difference with a turbo, you simply need a bigger load for the increased 
power.

Cool down:  give the engine at last a few minutes of either slow driving or 
idling to cool off after the event, to avoid coking the lubricating oil in the 
turbo.
