    While you are doing that, I'm going ahead with my plan to run the railroad right through Rock Ridge.

    Remember to practice "Social Distancing". What I have been doing is eating lots of beans. Then I took a painting pole, adjusted it to 6ft and I swing it around. So if you get hit with the pole first, it's not my fault. If I don't hit you then the smell will take you down. I'm protected.

    When you are running a fever, you can spray it on your forehead and let the evaporative qualities cool you off. Then take a swig.

    You'd be like in the old west then. Sanitize a wound with it, stake a swig and bite on a bullet while they remove one from your abdomen.

    One of the largest transmission manufacturers on the planet (plus Elio transmission supplier) happens to make these toilet seats too. No TP required and it even has a drier function. https://showertoiletus.com/product/shower-toilet1/

    I found some options for you: https://www.mcmaster.com/toilet-paper-dispensers https://www.uline.com/BL_2329/Tork-Mini-Jumbo-Bath-Tissue-Dispenser Quit messing around with consumer products, go industrial! This one would be good as it holds two rolls and has a keyed lock (keep TP thieves from...

    If you are in a panic about paper products and cleaners, the hardware stores have plenty. If you really need paper towels, go to the paint section, they got lots of rags in a box (which are like super duper paper towels). I have a couple of them as I'm doing a painting project. What my wife...

    You do realize those are not sold blocks of metal but cast pieces that are machined. No different than than things like a Briggs lawn mower engine or a transmission on a golf cart. Even in the SEC filings they say they are sand cast parts.

    I gave you links on that. It's an impressive industry that is growing quite well. It's the volume which becomes a problem and thus, why the FUV is a perfect candidate. If they made 100K FUV's/year, then it would not. Can you show me a pic of a part that FUV machines out of a solid block of...

    You actually will have to get used to it. Additive manufacturing (what we call it) is getting bigger all of the time. You will need to adjust your thinking that making fabricated parts is going by the wayside. In all honesty, I can't think of a car in the last 25 years that used fabricated...

    That FUV upright on the right is an overly expensive part to make. It shows that FUV decided to go that route because they didn't want to invest an aluminum casting. Instead, multiple plates of steel that are laser cut, then placed into a jig and welded. After that, it's probably painted (as...

    Can I "meet the team" for FUV? Plus I want to know the name of that engineer.

    It makes sense. When my wife went into real estate, it was a way for women to further themselves. She did great and I appreciate that. It was that after 10 years she hit the ceiling. Those commercial accounts are for men. So a $10M piece of property is for men. $100k is what women can handle. I...

    What's the percentage of women that work for FUV? What's the percentage of women that are in Engineering rolls? What's the percentage of women that are in Executive rolls? I only ask this because we had a local company that celebrated womens day and come to find out, the total employment of the...

    Paul Elio Is A Coward.

    Elio only started two businesses in the last 21 years. Iyer seems to be the anti Midas touch though. At least they paid him $150K to keep the ATVM loan going, then to move onto the car sharing business and then onto the education business. I just wonder what he will go into next? FUV is looking...

    Paul Elio Is A Coward.

    Think about it. If Paul came out of hiding there's only one line that the reservation holder want to hear, it's, "Elio Motors will go into production (insert date here)." That's it. Nothing else. We know he can't do that because he needs a $440M check to make that happen, so a $25M one will go...

    Paul Elio Is A Coward.

    Delusional come from the people that you surround yourself with. Paul had a bunch of yes men that seen the potential and were ready to jump on board. Plus you needed to remember the time. We were going through big gas prices for a second time, we still remember the financial crisis. GM was...

    Conflicting Production Start Dates

    I like to use this production date from back in January 2013 (18 months from the day of the speech which is June 3, 2014). Just watch from the 8:30. We will be even exporting them by the end of the decade. Since I mentioned this before and that some think the decade ends December 31, 2020, then...
