Nicks News Snippets

I was reading this morning about electric cars being charged as they go along by pads in the road! This is not a new concept as it has been demonstrated before on programs like Tomorrows World and we know how long ago that finished.   So why do we keep pretending this is new? why can we not admit our dads thought of it first and give them so credit.

Rain rain rain Is its the time of global warming or is it  just the cycle of the Earth. As the old saying goes what goes round comes around.  Years ago we had very bad winters the snow was 6 or  7 feet high in the UK, I remember not being able to get out of the door. Now we have rain, houses are flooded why? Because we built them on low lying land and flood plains. DOH!        Years ago rivers and lakes shrunk now they are on the way back flash foods happen because we have coved the run off's in tarmac and  concrete so now we get Flood warning websites  from the government a sign that they do not think it is going away  http://www.shoothill.com/flood/
