CRON 02/12/24 4:19:57 PM #2:	Melting a ton of snow very quickly would result in the roads being wet and icing over again.

That would be better, I didn't suggest it because I was afraid that people insist we build trillions dollars worth of missiles instead of solving a domestic situation with heated roads --- 1 Like 0 Comments <cite>Master_Kazuya posted [p:978807322] in Why do we ...

willythemailboy 02/13/24 6:40:18 AM #18:	mustachedmystic posted... Just for a second, try to imagine how much energy dat would take. If my half-assed estimate is correct, it's about 3 gallons of gas to melt one inch of snow per 100 yards per lane. Or if you want to go electric, it would take a full charge from a Tesla Model S to melt the same area. --- There are four lights. <cite>willythemailboy posted [p:978817335] in Why do we ...
