   As others have said, a hybrid will have a belt because the engine is needed (at least) to charge the batteries. I wouldn’t expect an all-electric car to have belts because there won’t be a gas engine. I would expect the various motor-driven components (e.g. AC) to run off of main power bus.

   It’s a serpentine belt today, but it’s the same concept. Every non-electric car is going to have one.

   Wish for money? That’s a classic. You end up with stolen money and law enforcement traces is right to you. You’ll end up a fugitive and need that next wish…

   Transport? Is it going to just be you? Will your clothes come along? What about that phone? Will the people chasing you also be transported? Will they know where you went?

   Eternal health? There are worse things than death. It would be really terribly if you ended up in such a situation and were forced to suffer through it.

   There are far too many stories about genies and wishes. The one thing they all have in common is that genies are tricksters and will do whatever they can to twist your wish so you get what you asked for, but end up regretting it afterward.

   Care to explain for the rest of us who are not really astute, astronomically-oriented observers?

   So yet another comic artist thinks its his duty to make political statements, as if we don’t already hear about it 24×7 from everybody else.

   Sounds like you need a new snow blower. Use an electric (if your drive/walk is close enough to an outlet) or get one with an electric starter.

   Are you calling Broomie “some stupid with a flare gun”?

   Makes sense. Most of the heat is going to rise. If the ice is thick enough to safely walk on, then it’s going to require a lot of fire for it to melt a hole. More than any scout troop is going to safely manage.

    Thick wallet? No problem. Full of money? That’s something altogether different.
