I don't own a GPS and before I had a compass in my truck, I would look for satalite dishes for direction.

How? It's not even real! Maybe this time with CGI. Remember to make a little crater this time from the thrust of the engines!

You can use your old spark plugs in simple projects to make FREE zero point energy.
I had a Dodge that wouldn't climb the slightest incline in cold weather until I drove it for at least 20 minutes. The sad part was that I lived on a flat between two hills, so had to keep driving back and forth until it warmed up enough for the transmission to stop slipping. The saddest part though was that I had just bought it brand new (not rebuilt) from Dodge, it came from the factory with a bad pump.

Leaving a tractor block heater plugged in all the time, all winter won't use any more energy than just plugging in some period before use.

I always thought it was from the days when battery cases were made of glass, and setting one on concrete would be a risk of breakage.

Concrete is usually quite conductive and placing a battery on concrete will in fact create a capacitor in effect, using the plastic bottom as the dielectric. BUT, a capacitor only passes AC, not DC, so that still doesn't explain it. The only other thing I could think of would be a usual temperature difference between ambient and the floor being colder.
