Loss of licence in a city built exclusively for car based transport isn't going to be very successful in keeping people from driving

You can see depth with a single eye, you just need to move your eye

Two eyes in animals are used either to get extra view angle (in a cow, for instance) or to give instant depth information (in a human or tiger for example) or for both (in dragonflies)

Penis length studies use erect length or stretched flaccid length. Many penises are very short when flaccid, others are their full length when flaccid

I play freeciv (an open source civ 3.5 clone) much more often than civ 5 which I bought. I'll agree with you. Newer civ isn't all that attractive.

Sure, in the future state where we have all the energy we need from solar and wind, but then we have all the energy we need

Hydrogen maybe has a place in sea and air transport. Maybe has a place in trucks

Hydrogen right now comes from fossil fuels

That's really expensive compared to fracking. It's reasonable to assume that any hydrogen project is going to use fossil hydrogen
