kids of today have it easy in school right? or so the saying goes! I would say we dont but........

how about this for a school competition! www.greenpower.co.uk bet you oldies didnt have things like car racing!

I would just like to show any teachers on this forum (aka bns) what schools can do as a fun engineering activity!   hint hint get your school involved or any young people ask your teachers!

p.s yes i do have a car in it

Hurricane, an excellent link.   Good luck with the car   A good project for all you development class sailors I would think.

(Oh & BTW, there were similar competitions when I was at school, run by BP an Shell. However, fuel cells and solar panels weren't exactly state of the art then. )

ahh well thats the shell eco marathon, one or two of the teams also enter that the problem is the large bugets some of the teams have for that, greenpower tends to be low buget but some of the cars produced are mind blowing!

You may be the spell checker but your grammar is a little suspect!

I thought I was the....would be correct english.  Otherwise it is unclear who was doing the thinking.  You could probably live with a comma where the smiley face is as well. A better constructed sentence may read: I'm sure a few of the 5K sailors thought I was the spell checker on here. 

This is all BNS's fault you know, she started it.

I might be sailing it, but it's still sh**e!
