David is right when he posted: >you probably didn't mean it literally, but to be clear, the SAM isn't the Sparrow's Polish cousin. It's not related in any way to the Corbin Sparrow or to any of the Sparrow's later "reboots." The cars are totally different in almost every way. Most notably, the SAM is a 2-place car and the Sparrow is a one-seater. The only things they have in common is that both are EVs and both are tadpole trikes.< I was playing with the words to grab interest and or entice readers to take a look. This is not an uncommon act in the media. i.e.: take a look at http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/EVent-NDEW-plugin-rides-Electrify-the-Island-The-Mote-10a-3p-9-10-Sarasota-FL-tp4683667.html The media outlet's headline mentions pimp'ing, but there was nothing about that in the piece= they used the word to bring in readers, sell ad space, etc. Thus, IMO it is fair-play to have a little fun (to keep it interesting) for the readers. Way, way back Sparrow set the standard for other 3 wheel EVs to follow. Today, there are several highway speed (55+mph) EVs on the market, see images https://www.google.com/search?q=three+wheel+electric+car&hs=Zkh&source=lnms&tbm=isch However. David's other words: >Bruce doesn't usually look for responses to his "Nabble only" news posts< could be construed as I put my posts in the evdl's (archive) EVLN sub folder so no one can post responses on them. Someone thinking that would not be correct, and not my intent, as it is easy enough for anyone to create a post on the evdl using a subject that references to that EVLN post (just like David did). IMO the evdl is all about EV discussions (as evdl's creator, Clyde Visser, had envisioned). If you feel you want to post your responses/views, just do as David has done (easy-peasy) and enjoy :-) For EVLN EV-newswire posts use: http://evdl.org/evln/ {brucedp.0catch.com} :: Today will be my first flight in many years (decade+), I hope I fit in their Munchkin seats :: -- View this message in context: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/Re-SAM-tp4683670p4683671.html Sent from the Electric Vehicle Discussion List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Read EVAngel's EV News at http://evdl.org/evln/ Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
