    Indeed. Time to take this problem seriously.
    Putting out Lithium battery fires is very difficult, much harder than most other fires. You can't put them out with water and oxygen starvation does not work.
    If it happened on a plane I doubt it would end well.

    Many passengers fly with a mobile phone - and there have been problems
    with those batteries.

    Is your concern just a general whinge, or do you want something to
    happen? I cannot see an NZ government banning carrying devices with
    batteries on planes . . .

    This appears to be just a general whinge, designed to make people
    dissatisfied, but not offering any solutions - no where have we seen
    that before . . .?

    You whinge, I don't.
    What it seems to you is as relevant as you are to this newsgroup, virtually irrelevant.
    Lithium batteries are potential killers and in some cases already so. That is not whingiing, that is good scientific concern. The more batteries there are the more likely there will be accidents and the fires are much harder to put out than most fires, you are a fool hiding your poity head in the proverbial sand. Scientists all over the world are concerned, shipping lines are concerned, insurers are concerned but you are not, you are a fool.

    That is so obvious I am sure you could work it out (well, maybe not so sure). But I will assist you, the designers and manufacturers of the batteries need to work on a fix. No different from any technology.

    Just as I thought - a general whinge, implying that some action was

    unless change was made - but in reality accepting my belief that there
    is as yet insufficient evidence to require anything other than keeping

    You have never achieved a science degree. Your mental approach is inconsistent with ever having attended university. So you lied about that.
    Bad technology kills people, Lithium batteries are looking like bad technology and you cannot see that - ergo you are scientifically amateurish at best.
    Or are you playing politics? That is even worse, playing with lives.

    Now instead of taking an utter stupid counter argument to what Tony says try and debate or fuck of back to your contemplation of Stalin's picture that I'm sure hangs above your bed/computer! Try acting like a reasonable human being with a single

    Reading into this article we have the concern that it is just a matter of
    time before a plane load of people make an unintended landing, owing to
    fire
    from a lithium battery.
    Indeed. Time to take this problem seriously.
    Putting out Lithium battery fires is very difficult, much harder than >>>>>>>most
    other fires. You can't put them out with water and oxygen starvation does
    not
    work.
    If it happened on a plane I doubt it would end well.

    Many passengers fly with a mobile phone - and there have been problems >>>>>>with those batteries.

    Is your concern just a general whinge, or do you want something to >>>>>>happen? I cannot see an NZ government banning carrying devices with >>>>>>batteries on planes . . .

    This appears to be just a general whinge, designed to make people >>>>>>dissatisfied, but not offering any solutions - no where have we seen >>>>>>that before . . .?
    You whinge, I don't.
    What it seems to you is as relevant as you are to this newsgroup, virtually
    irrelevant.
    Lithium batteries are potential killers and in some cases already so. That
    is
    not whingiing, that is good scientific concern. The more batteries there
    are
    the more likely there will be accidents and the fires are much harder to
    put
    out than most fires, you are a fool hiding your poity head in the >>>>>proverbial
    sand. Scientists all over the world are concerned, shipping lines are >>>>>concerned, insurers are concerned but you are not, you are a fool.

    So what do you believe should happen?
    That is so obvious I am sure you could work it out (well, maybe not so sure).
    But I will assist you, the designers and manufacturers of the batteries need
    to
    work on a fix. No different from any technology.

    Just as I thought - a general whinge, implying that some action was >>needed in New Zealand, and that we were all threatened with disaster >>unless change was made
    No such implication from me. You are being obtuse and abusive.
    I am nothing like you Tony.

    Finally some honesty from Red Rich! Tony is intelligent, honest and morally/ethically superior to you!
    - but in reality accepting my belief that there
    is as yet insufficient evidence to require anything other than keeping >>the public generally informed (which is happening).
    Your belief is wrong.
    No whinging from me, you are just too dumb to understand bad technology, maybe
    you should never have taken science in high school.
    What a stupid statement. You are losing any ability to analyse and
    think through conversations. I suspect Alzheimer, combined with
    unjustified arrogance is making you frustrated by your evident loss of acuity.
    The stupid is your stupid reply to honesty Red Rich! In your case it's a failure of Labours mental health initiative...

    I would rather see that evidence that a perfectly reasonable warning
    video against fake examples of dangerous behaviour. If there have been incidents of battery fires on aircraft, what happened? Why have mobile
    phones not been banned from use on an aircraft? Some passengers do
    charge their phones, and play games or read books etc on their phones
    - there does not seem to be any action to stop use of phones.

    Correction for the challenged - lithium battery fires are quite common.

    You are correct it was Gordon that originally made that statement, but
    you have now effectively said the same thing - again without any
    supporting evidence.

    I have not experienced a lithium battery fire, and I do not know
    anyone else who has. I suspect most people are in that situation, and
    many will never have heard of such a fire, despite there having been a
    number of articles about them around the world - I cannot for example
    remember when there was such a report in my local paper or on
    television or radio - and I possible read and watch more widely than
    many. I do know that when they happen they can cause severe damage. I
    have been told that many mobile phones use such batteries but I detect
    no qualms with most people over leaving them charging overnight or
    carrying them around - and precautions against dropping them is more
    about avoiding breakage.

    So ''quite common'' may be fairly meaningless really in the context of
    the general population . . .

    you have now effectively said the same thing - again without any
    supporting evidence.

    I have not experienced a lithium battery fire, and I do not know
    anyone else who has. I suspect most people are in that situation, and
    many will never have heard of such a fire, despite there having been a number of articles about them around the world - I cannot for example remember when there was such a report in my local paper or on
    television or radio - and I possible read and watch more widely than
    many. I do know that when they happen they can cause severe damage. I
    have been told that many mobile phones use such batteries but I detect
    no qualms with most people over leaving them charging overnight or
    carrying them around - and precautions against dropping them is more
    about avoiding breakage.

    So ''quite common'' may be fairly meaningless really in the context of
    the general population . . .
    So Red Rich, do you have anything to support your unsupported claims? Or is it only those who disagree with you/the left who need to support their claims?

    To say that you have not had one is culpably stupid. I doubt you have had a brain tumour either and they are commonplace.

    So you get your information from the media and from left wing blog
    sites, neither of which report any facts that you might find
    unpalatable.

    That explains a lot.

    Bill.

    Usenet is based on the principal that every post is from an
    individual. Newsgroups (including nz.general) are subject groupings.
    I am responding to you Rich and with Usenet it cannot be any other
    way. You can see this in the hierarchal way that posts and responses
    are shown.

    While you may consider responders to a thread as a group, replies can
    only ever be to previous posts all of which came from specific
    posters.

    whereas in your authoritarian way you regard
    yourself as in charge of any thread you start . . .
