Join the contestThe best part about BMI, is it was actually developed for quick uniform sizing.True. Hand in hand with that is the traditional BMI calc. If you use that calc, other than marathon runners and other similar builds, most of our top level athletes, elite military personnel, or really anyone with a shred of muscle on their body is "overweight" or bordering on "obese". I had surgery a few weeks ago and was listed as overweight. I wear a size 34 waist pant and am 6 feet tall and weigh 215. My weight varies yearly between about 200lbs, to about 220 depending on what I am doing or training for. If I dip below 200lbs I look pretty emaciated and my clothes fall off me.
Still, doctors use the traditional BMI to assess health.

I told you so. See my post #72,527. I still don’t trust her. She sounds like a conservative, Christian, right wing, Trump voting, MAGA republican now but watch her rollover like a whore on Saturday night when it benefits her.
She is keeping her name out there for some reason. Nobody goes this public on such a topic without an end purpose in mind.

I am continually amazed at how many people very intentionally seek out the tearing apart of their religion these days.
A friend of my brothers had a battery pack for some large battery yard thingy. Most of these packs consist of some number of smaller lithium batteries hooked together. It was charging in the garage. Something went wrong. It blew up and launched flaming lithium batteries like balls from a Bouncing Betty. A multitude of ignition points. Burned his house down.
Common, no. Possible, yes.
Thank you,

This is correct. All LIPO batteries should be charged and stored in a batt box. This is a problem for a car. I really don't know what anyone was expecting by running battery operated cars.This is all old news to anyone that fly electric model airplanes. Lipo batteries really made this end of the hobby come to life, and nothing, as in NOTHING hits batteries harder then electric model airplanes. An EDF (electric ducted fan), think jet, will pull 60amps easy for a solid 5 minutes, and the battery will be quite hot to the touch after the flight. These little styrofoam models can clock 100mph easy. Then will recharge again in roughly 30 minutes. The batteries have fairly short life spans because of the abuse they take. They also catch fire, both in use and while charging. And the fire really does not go out till everything burns.
I have had two lipo fires related to my model planes. One on the charger. It was in the basement charging, and I ran upstairs for "a minute" come back and full on fire in the middle of my table. I also charge in a 50cal ammo can, so it was cut the wires and close the lid, then outside. One started fire when it landed. Not a rough landing, a smaller Panther EDF jet, think Bridges of Toko-Ri. Plane was lost sitting on the runway.
When you think of how many things use lipo batteries they do have a good track record, and when you charge them slow, like in your phone, or laptop with a thermal sensor the risk is pretty small. But when you start to really hit them hard with fast charging and hard discharges.....big risk.
I don't have a battery car, and really because it is not good fit for me. But one thing I know I would do everything I could to keep from fast charging them.

She's not going to get any appreciable traction. The demonrat machine took her down last time and they'll do it again.I would hope that she is sincere, but I have my doubts. At one time, she was wanting to be the leader of this country by the democrat cabal. Yes, she could have seen the errors of her way. What confuses me is her call for or Demwits to leave the party and join the Republican party. Time will tell.
