my take : Nobody with a pc gives a hoot!

paint this article over the top of a Red Man chewin' tabakky ad (on the side of a barn) and it'll get some attention!

More than half the fun of being a gearhead, or a computer geek for that matter, is taking unlikely junk and turning it into something really impressive. And indeed this is where the manufacturers get their best ideas. Look at popular firearm cartridges for example. Virtually all of them started out as somebody's wildcat.

The point is that innovation always starts with someone working on his own, until big business steals the idea. Well okay, sometimes they do pay for it.

The government is too stupid to run their own business, and we expected them to be smart about the help they give to the auto industry. As incompetent as GM's old leadership was, the government is even worse.

I hope this is a big old fail for the government.....
