If cost of power (is fuel vs grid electricity) is the main factor, then aerodynamics are more important on a gas/diesel vehicle--especially at highway speeds where power consumption shifts towards air resistance induced by higher speeds vs the greater weight of EVs. If range is the major consideration, then electric.

Presumably, as EVs typically have a "skateboard" design with a layer of batteries near the base, it would be easier to design the front of a BEV for greater aerodynamics.

He's saying the individuals present may be racists in their own right, but as an organization the freemasons do not hold racist views.

There's no revision there, if it isn't in their tenets it isn't in their tenets.

If they particular cluster of douches in NC were racists, they were racists

ever met a small child under age five? they can usually speak, but haven't learned to read and write yet.

or a blind person?

illiteracy exists for many reasons.

if you moved to a foreign country you'd probably learn to speak before you learned to read and write, especially if the writing didn't use the alphabet. at which point you would be functionally illiterate as well.

Another perspective on infinity is the coastline problem. If u measure a coastline you have to define the resolution of the map. If it’s in inches, rather than miles or yards it will result in a MUCH greater number for the same section of coastline. If u increase the resolution to infinity, you make the measure of the coastline infinite. There is an infinity in every minute dot.
