Rumor mill, but the Mazda RX9 may have their rotary engine powering the battery, which then delivers energy to the drivetrain.
"In that concept, the rotary engine functions as a generator to produce electricity for the battery and electric motor, rather than mechanically driving the wheels."
Excited to see if this becomes a reality

- "The ADWR requires airlines to take samples from their water tanks to test for coliform bacteria and possible E. coli."
I believe the study is based on water in the tank of the passenger airline and the advice given is to not drink that water, on average.

I think what's intended is that the completed and downloaded solution doesn't require any javascript.
Build something then hit the Download Code button - that packaged HTML solution doesn't require any javascript to render locally.
