It is not a case of proving me right ...everyone knows I am right...and do you think I am so shallow I would buy all that stuff just to prove I am right? No way. And very few would disagree that the electric motor is more efficient than any internal combustion engine and it is that efficiency difference that finally will see internal combustion shelved...just like steam power...great at the time but I am thinking of the bright future ahead of us with say 20 billion humans all working to leave the planet that has been ruined by fossil fuels...

Perhaps the machine you are working with is now relatively old ..things get old real quick because tech changes so fast.... and efficiency in any business is what reflects profitability...less efficient means less profit...

In any event I think the new machines are delivering the dream that Glen referred to...the world is getting better by the day so the machines we will see as each year passes will be better and better as everything is...have a great weekend and hope to see you next week...
