"Dezdan - Forget the search engines, you've summed it up BETTER than any website ever will. I only have one question: what kind of tires do you recommend for those 452 degree F summers?"
The tire problem was a major problem until scientist from the Do-Dew research facilities discovered that the Death-Valley-Toad-Rolling-Dung-Beetle (DV Stinkies Maxamus) deposited a secretion (after cleaning up the famous Middle Park burro piles) that when brushed on standard rubber radial tires would protect them from the substantial heat. At first the CBP (Center for Burro Poop) filled a lawsuit against the Do-Dew research facilities saying that using the beetle secretion was causing harm to the environment, but the Do-Dew research scientist were able to prove that the secretion came from the land so it could not harm the land.
On a serious note, these kids need to learn how to work for themselves, and learn how to use the biggest tool in that world that is right at there finger tips. LeRoy, in response to you comment:, "If parents are reading this message, a word of advice: Teach your child to use the power of the internet." I could not agree more with you, but the major problem today is that things are the other way around most of the time. The kids of today are showing their parents how to use the internet.
