Although he may have believed his past projections were unrealistic, he never acknowledged it.most interesting article .... it not only confirms info given in other recent publications but (as noted) promises updates from a source that, "Paul Elio said he’d be happy to give TTAC access to the prototype build as they reach significant stages in the fabrication." .... I also can appreciate the comment, "When asked when their latest prototype would be finished, Paul Elio said he didn’t want to give a specific time frame because they’re pushing to meet a somewhat unrealistic, accelerated schedule and they don’t want the attendant bad publicity from missing a published deadline." .... history shows that there are those whose mission in life seems to be twisting info from EM in an attempt to give credibility to their projections of doom and gloom .... because of them we will be getting less info during the process
Agreed, I took this as PE having learned to produce first, talk later, probably not his style but what needs to be done to keep the Trolls under their bridges of doom.most interesting article .... it not only confirms info given in other recent publications but (as noted) promises updates from a source that, "Paul Elio said he’d be happy to give TTAC access to the prototype build as they reach significant stages in the fabrication." ....

in rereading the Truth About Cars.... Paul most certainly knows this better than anyone else and appears to doing whatever is necessary to make it happen .... so long as there is evidence of progress, I honestly wouldn't be the least bit upset if there is another delay
