I'm sure when the bike maker brothers rolled out their contraption, lots called it a 'nonsense project' too...Good thing they didn't listen to the 'grumps'...


Hmm...and maybe just give unemployment to the 800,000++ people who work for these 2 'billionaires??

William, post 41, gets it.

Post 41 get's it....I dunno just seems like he's rationalizing the good vs. the bad. The bike makers and their perseverance with their contraption...All well and good back in a time of Earth's history with much less people on the planet and much less effects of the industrial revolution on this planet. The unemployment comment...I dunno, above my paygrade besides you sound a bit sarcastically grumpy and dare I say venturing into politics?
