Although, you do get better crash protection if you allow your GTA character to take a moment to put a seatbelt or motorcycle helmet on.

Yeah, after looking around I fell for an urban legend. There is no seatbelt animation. There is a helmet animation but it doesn't seem to actually protect you any more than driving around bareheaded.

Phanatic posted:27 mols of H2 will combust with oxygen to produce about 8 megajoules of heat. So even assuming that your input energy is totally clean, you're only getting out of this about 16% of what you put into it, and now you've got a bunch of aluminum hydroxide (not oxide) that you need to turn back into aluminum metal. To do that, first you need to turn it into aluminum oxide, which you do by heating it, and then you GOTO 10. Aluminium is safer to store than hydrogen so you could use this to generate hydrogen when you need. Except that you probably can't have a grinder anywhere where you might want to generate hydrogen, so you probably would need to store the aluminium as fine, porous powder. Which probably isn't very safe anymore. I guess it wouldn't be completely worthless as a method for storing extra electricity production if you wanted to have source of hydrogen available but didn't want to deal with the problems of storing hydrogen. Sounds like quite niche tho.

Sounds like quite niche tho. But again, same problem. Powdered aluminum is going to oxidize upon contact with air, so either you keep it totally isolated from air or you need to spend energy to turn it back into aluminum, and then let it react with water to produce H2. H2's what you want, and if you have a sufficiently abundant energy source to keep producing pure aluminum, then there's already a nice handy, high-density, safe storage form for H2: Water.

My first symptoms had been a noticeable shortness of breath. I would breathe and exhale and then get the panicky feeling I hadn’t breathed at all. Then I would gasp for another quick breath with the same result. My fingers began to cramp, and then my toes. For a time I could control this unusual cramping by forcibly straightening out my fingers and toes. http://www.snopes.com/movies/films/ozebsen.asp

Could be worse, they could have chopped him apart bit by bit and replaced it with metal, then sewed the bits back together and he eventually finds that person sleeping with his sweetheart, like in the books. It turns out "nothing dies in Oz" isn't a nice soft fluffy thing...

Nope. The man who discovered the element called it Aluminum and the most important English dialect spells it Aluminum. Some prissy british man decided he'd add an extra letter because he liked the sound of it better, but he was wrong.

Grimm's stuff kind of is meant to be over the top as most fairy tales were usually old folk tales usually being warnings about going into woods or social misdemeanors about crying wolf.

The writing is pre-literate children's level. The only good character is H.M. Wogglebug, T.E., and only then because of his love of puns. Everyone else is so flat they're 0 dimensional.
