RW - "This may be a video of the electric car mentioned in the news article about George Clooney. It can accelerate from 0-60 in just over 3 seconds!" - end RW quote
Isn't this really an achievement in InEfficiency and InEffectiveness Richard?
Which achievement impresses you most, Innovation in InEfficiency or Innovation in InEffectiveness?
NOTE 01: We use Natural Resources by using them up and we use up Human Resources by not using them.
Wnen I was very much younger 0-60 times impressed me.
Now I cannot wonder at others who express the same thoughts I did when I was very much younger and hope that they are not as dumb as I know I was at that time even though I remember knowing everything about everything.
NOTE 02: At one time I drove an Austin Healy Sprite. A co-worker bought himself a 309hp Chevy and would not stop bragging about fast he could go 0-60 and he challenged all comers.
I told him I would race him from Norwalk to Bridgeport on one gallon of gas and he refused but he said he would give one hundred dollars if I could pass him on the road.
One week later I notices smoke up ahead on my way to work and as I passesd the slow moving car I recognized him in his 409.
I let him catch up to me to offer him help but he waved me on. He looked less than happy.
So I actually passed him twice on the highway that day but he never payed off. Bummer!
Thank you for bringing back that memory.
