I think some of us may be contacting SEN on the back of this thread with a caller giving them the scoop yesterday that Carlton will be announcing the biggest sponsorship deal in AFL history in the next week or so.

Interesting...

Whats next? Can we afford Judd?

The hotels deal...not the sponsorship.

You also have to give alot of credit to Swann... but of course there would be no Swann if Smorgon had got in.. and he may have if it were not for Rose...

So the credit should go to MArcus Rose...

Winnie Blue would be distressed over the lack of culture, as this isn't how they do things in Lichtenstein.

So since Toyota Prius and Hummers have been discussed - heres something different - but way cheaper and much more effective at being green - but maybe a bit too effective for the likings of the oil industry and the government.

4 cents per litre to fill your car - and a 25% climate change emissons reduction while you drive - how about that?

A conversion to an existing ICE (Internal combustion engine) car to run on CNG costs about $3500.

University of California studies show that instant greenhouse gas reductions of 25-26% are achieved using natural gas in cars.– http://www.ngvglobal.com/index.php.

CNG can be blended with up to 20% hydrogen and result in emission reductions of over 30% - http://www.hythane.com/ - Hythane – A ‘blue sky and clean air’, low carbon transport fuel -

This is the most cost effective way to achieve substantial climate change emission reductions without compromising drivability, apart from the need to refual a bit more frequently than with petrol, NGV cars are no different to drive..

It is also possible to install a home refuelling pump - the cost per litre to refuel overnight at home is around 4 cents per litre. - http://www.myphill.com/ - Home refuelling.

So with such clear and very do-able environmental advantages, why is it that there will be 1 million government subsidised NGV conversions in the Middle East by 2010 and 50 million worldwide by 2020 - yet our government says that NGV's are 'problematic'

I might add that in the case of the Middle East, the NG conversions in that part of the world are hopelessly uneconomic - as in many cases, petrol is priced at 40 cents per litre or lower - yet there will be 1 million of then by 2010....

If 75 percent of Canadian Motorists can access to Natural Gas at Service Stations : http://www.ngvontario.com/about_faqs.html

Could it be that given that Aust has large Natural Gas reserves, government policy in Australia is being compromised - to the disadvantage of everyone - by the short term needs and desires of the oil industry?

Oh, heres wher you can NGV conversions for your car here in Melbourne... http://www.advancedfuels.com.au/ngv.htm . They also sell the 'Phil' home refueller as well...
