    What has our Goverment

    Sorry turtle, I can't agree with the 5 times back premise. I have heard that argument a lot but it doesn't hold water. My point is that we always could do a lot of this within the private sector more efficiently and have been doing a lot of technology transfer from the universities for a long...

    Desk top computer in a truck?

    Ok maybe a little worry here. Having a lot of equipment in the truck, dropping a lot of it in the sleeper, I have yet has a hard drive fail on me, even with a few that have been running for 5 years in servers. If one is to worry about the shock of the truck and so on, then maybe instead of...

    What has our Goverment

    NASA? OK, for the amount of money that is spent there, our return is less as it should be. If the government gave the same amount of money to private companies and told them "do this" or "we want that", they would give us a better return. They have been an overinflated government bureaucracy...

    OVM, Jefferson was speaking of a different time when we didn't have a near dictatorship in government. If we have what is considered a hard revolution, we will be on the losing end - all of us. It shows right now with the DHS and the lackluster leader of that department. It was setup to fight...

    What has our Goverment

    OVM, Maybe everywhere else but not here. I point to a great example, Southfield rd between I75 and I94. We are spending all this money to build, repair and fix the roads. some of the money is going to widen roads for development housing tracks and some to repair bridges that are well new...

    Obama returned my money! 2 fold

    See the best Detroit has to offer. Tours start at $25 an hour. Not the run of the mill this is Downtown, here are the casinos but see real drug deals going on in front of the police stations, arsonists practicing their trades, Crack wh*res working and maybe even a shooting or two. See the...

    Speaking of White Glove.....

    Selling the truck as a WG package and it staying in the fleet is the same as letting inexperienced drivers joining WG - it really slams the people who are working hard trying to get into WG who are playing by the rules. This is supposed to be the elite of the best within the company but I see...

    Obama returned my money! 2 fold

    No Pjjjjj, it didn't happen in the three months we had Obama, it happened with the 35 years of democratic control of the city. Some may even go as far as saying 35 years of black control of the city but I don't think it is just a race issue, even though the city has made it one for 34 of those...

    Just in...Chrysler reaches deal with CAW

    OVM, The agreement means nothing if the company shuts down. They, the CAW and the workers will be out of a job, the parent company Chrysler will sell off the Canadian company and no one will get anything except the creditors. The CAW has no way to guarantee anything when it hits the courts...

    GM to pull the plug on Pontiac

    Here is one explination - from wiki "Sloan is credited with establishing annual styling changes, from which came the concept of planned obsolescence. He also established a pricing structure in which (from lowest to highest priced) Chevrolet, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Buick and Cadillac—referred to...

    DHS and McCain get it wrong again!

    The unfortunate thing is Napolitano is a very poor choice for the country but a great choice for Obama. She has said crossing the border is not a crime, and Obama has not forced her to correct her statement which means he bleives the same thing. Invading a country is a crime, it is an...

    another good week...

    Sorry Dougi, what planet are you on? We can't return to prosperity until some serious changes are made, starting with an increase in the interest rate, Tax replacement and other hard serious measures that Obama is incapable of understanding - in other words someone has to pay the bill and it...

    GM to pull the plug on Pontiac

    Humvee is made by AM General, not GM. The Hummer brand was bought by GM from AM General and it is a stupefied version of the Tahoe. The hummer should go quickly, it was there to fill a market which has long since died. GMC is the truck designer, not Chevrolet, hence GMC truck division. The...

    I thought the shift was to move to more traditional weapons and strategies?

    Big Banks now turning a profit again...

    Wow and to think that they were all going to go under a month ago. Maybe we should start thinking about breaking up the banks.

    tax cuts-not!

    Compared to what part of Clinton's administration? The first 100 days? The first two years? The last two years?

    What Operating System is Everybody Using?

    Taking Windows out of the equation, I am leaning on the side of Linux not just because of the near equal performance of the OS but the fact that MAC OS 10.x is Linux with a slightly different kernel and some extras. I think apple with the Motorola instruction set was the overall best but the...

    Eco Mud Flaps

    The effectiveness of the airtabs seems to be related to a distance between objects. I mean that the 8 to 12 inches from the bumper bottom to the cement may negate any airflow changes because of the turbulence from the air trying to escape, make sense? Unlike the airtabs being mounted on the...
