The base typically has a goal, but that’s exactly all I know about it.

How do we plan the meeting if we don’t have a pre-meeting meeting???

I’ve seen this sort of thing play out too; we did an exercise with STARS, then a week later they couldn’t get into an area but recognized that we could parachute in and clear an LZ. They called the guy who organized our participation in the exercise, he gave them JRCCs number, this was something...

I don’t even get the whole racket? What is the repercussions of not making our target? We say “sorry, our folks haven’t received a cost of living adjustment either”? Maybe it’s embarrassing for the base commander?

I have no idea if this is true, just read the accusation on Twitter. I suspect this is going to escalate quickly.

Oh yeah, and they’re covering Nunavut too.

Best case there’s a Corm in each Greenwood and Gander, and a Herc in Greenwood. Unless one of them is broken, or on another mission.

It’s a single Captain whose background is likely a single tour at a SAR unit, and a member of the CCG. And depending what else is going on in the SRR they may be completely overwhelmed with their actual jobs, or they may have lots of time to try to puzzle through what to do with this. Sometimes...

That’s not how I read that, those are not efficient at all, they’re ~20%. I was thinking more along the lines of commercially generated electricity transferred via a cable to an outlet. Not necessarily produced near where it’s used but the efficiency is much higher.

they do not. I wrote an SOCD on the EO/IR in 2009, so I assume it’s making its way through the Div.

I’m pretty sure they do not. They do have a spotlight.

We sent a herc to that and the RCMP could not comprehend that the entire technology was just looking out the window with eyeballs. It’s designed for finding someone who wants to be found.

Again, sounds logical, but grossly misinformed https://www.aaa.com/autorepair/articles/how-efficient-is-your-cars-engine

So you can harvest your own gasoline or no? I just pointed out that there are many ways to get electricity, I don’t think that’s true for gas. Didn’t say a generator was a good way to do it or that anyone needs to do this.

You could if you wanted to but it’s completely unnecessary

It would depend on the amperage of the generator and the cord (the Tesla ones IIRC adjust based on what plug you use), but you wouldn’t fill it in this case, you just need enough juice to get it to a charger. Strangely enough, you could also flat tow it and the car will generate power, though...

You can’t honestly think this guy is doing this regularly. It’s probably staged. Best case it’s a fringe case, and you’ve already blown them off, you can’t have it both ways.

I have a solution for you: Gas can turn into electricity? That seems convenient. Can you do the opposite?

You can get devices now that attach to your meter and only charge when your load for the entire house is low enough, in case people have a smaller service and try to charge while roasting a turkey, drying the laundry, and having a shower. It’s basically aimed at people have smaller panels and...

Then we’re back at the same problem as an ICE; it’s ridiculously expensive to get a new engine at the dealership.
