1000 Qantas job to go
- Thread starter Caput Lupinum
- Start date
Depends what sort of ban was put in place. One of the silent admins did it - I was just getting to reading the thread when I saw he had been booted.

Silent Admins..Is this a good thing...Have some gongoolies and put you name up for scrutiny.

I certainly couldn't see from the posts where a ban was appropriate.. He did swear a bit. Maybe a blackout of words may be something the silent adm might be able to do.?
There were a couple of physical threats made. Lots of members hitting the report function.
I hope he doesn't join the S&M dwarf porn forums I visit... that'd really lower the tone :/

Now that thankfully you've been unbanned perhaps you'll be able to answer this head scratcher, why don't you sell your 10000 shares in this publicly listed company @ $5? You'd get $50,000 to pay for things like you know electricity?
Qantas has now been downgraded by S&P to junk status

You obviously do not know too much about CNG.TheEnd said:
Because of the pressures, the storage cylinders have to have thicker walls than LPG cylinders. CNG cylinders can also be filled up at home from any natural gas outlet, with a 'home compressor station' that costs circa $4000.
You really shouldn't be so myopic. So lets look at this:TheEnd said:
1. CNG cylinders are heavier than LPG cylinders, depending on size, by perhaps 15-20 Kg.
2. CNG is circa 20% the cost of petrol. LPG used to be circa 50% the cost of petrol, and whilst I have not checked recently assume this is still the case.
3. CNG cylinders can be filled up at home with a domestic filling station (compressor) for a substantially reduced price. Without doing the mathematics, probably <$0.20/litre.
4. The range is dependent on the number and location of filling stations Australia wide, which is increasing. However, it is perfect for traveling to/from work with each cylinder capable of several 100's of kilometers range.
5. No supply problems if you have a home station.
6. NG can be compressed to <1% of it's volume to make CNG.
7. CNG, from a combustion viewpoint, is safer than LPG in the event of an accident.
All in all, the advantages appear to outweigh the negatives.
Ther was a news article about a guy in Melbourne spending about 12k I think it was on converting his car to CNG.....He bought the filling station and all.... A few years ago now.
Three problems were mentioned ....
1# The tanks took up the majority of the boot of the car.
2# The refilling took 8 hours or something overnight.
3# Even with the big tanks was range was limited to something like 300klms.
