MrBayAreaHokie • 08/14/23 09:13 PM ET
Remember, the cost of electric is only going up since we're closing down...
EDGEMAN • 08/14/23 08:11 PM ET
We should put filters in the auto exhaust system to trap the carbon. Then
IB4TECH • 08/14/23 09:05 PM ET
I have a cheaper solution, plant trees!
EDGEMAN • 08/15/23 06:31 AM ET

MrBayAreaHokie • 08/14/23 09:10 PM ET
