Las Vegas Stardust Memories-Good or Bad? Las Vegas Solar Lamp update, Yet another electric car for Las Vegas, Gas Price Poll & more.

POLL RESULTS:
100% of respondents voted that they are not entirely happy with the care they receive from their PCM. This is a warning that we should be extremely vigilant to ensure our best interests are being pursued by physicians. Knowledge is our best defense as are second opinions. Please use the many resources available on the web to understand your conditions as best you can.
PHYSICIANS PLEASE TAKE NOTE !!
SOLAR UPDATE:
The solar street lamp on test at L.E.’s Las Vegas community has been taken back to the factory for evaluation by its engineering department (here in the Las Vegas area) against the laboratory standard lamp after four weeks of being on test in L.E.'s Las Vegas community.
The most interesting test (for L.E.) is whether the lamp now provides as much or more light output throughout the night as existing gas lamps or whether further engineering is required to meet that standard.
Last evening the manufacturer brought some board members from a neighboring community to see the lamp in action. Also a low voltage alternative was demonstrated. While the low voltage system is clearly brighter than the solar lamp and gas lamp, its installation is problematical, as all owners need to allow trenching and access to power at their residences.
Should the solar lamps prove a success (and there is no apparent reason why they should not) they will likely be a huge cost saving to Las Vegas communities as well as reducing greenhouse gas emissions substantially. The savings may be used to provide security patrols or other measures to make our communities safer places in which to live.

YET ANOTHER ELECTRIC CAR FOR LAS VEGAS:
This one is from China and is marketed by a California company based in San Luis Obispo. The vehicle apparently has a range of around 50 miles per charge and is limited in speed so as to be a NEV (neighborhood electric vehicle) which may, L.E. believes, (in Las Vegas) be used on streets which have a 35 mph speed limit.
L.E. is disappointed that the MSRP is at $10,000 and is of the opinion that if closer to $5,000 many would be sold, whereas, value is not apparent at the former figure. NEV’s do not have the safety items such as airbags as do regular vehicles, nor are they tested for safety by our government, therefore, huge cost savings should be available to the consumer which savings are not apparent.

Meanwhile today’s poll is to gauge how many Dollars we now spend on gas each month. Please participate.

L.E.’s LAS VEGAS FISH DISH A HUGE SUCCESS!
L.E. is pleased that his free Las Vegas Fish Dish recipe has been enjoyed by so many. Its simplicity and balance of flavors and textures (AND LACK OF "FISHY" SMELL) make it appear on his menu at least weekly. He is testing the Las Vegas Easy Yet Extremely Tasty Chicken Dish for you now and hopes to provide it very soon. Later he may share a Cornish pasty recipe which has been handed down for generations. As a child L.E. used to be sent to Cornwall to stay with a family whose head (named Fred) was a prisoner of war buddy of L.E.’s father. During L.E.’s stay he would consume many piping hot pasties. Last year L.E. visited Cornwall and the widow of Fred, now over 90 years of age. L.E. noted her recipe and will share it with you soon. It will use cow meat as an ingredient (Yes George-cow meat).


WE HAVE NOW LOST 4,000 AMERICANS, MANY ALLIES AND COUNTLESS IRAQIS IN THE IRAQ FIASCO:
Yet both major parties (or as L.E. believes talking heads for corporate America and the industrial/military complex) still avoid and evade definitive withdrawal schedules. It appears that the lessons learned from the Vietnam experience (which caused/prompted L.E. to spent 6 years of his youth in armed service) have been forgotten.

Only one Presidential candidate is unambiguous on this issue: http://www.votenader.org/
