Oh absolutely. As I wrote that, I was trying (apparently unsuccessfully) to avoid using the American auto market as an analogy -- most analogies only go so far, and just like statistics, you can find parallels to suit any point of view you want to take -- but rather I was hoping that we'd see a change in consume attitudes similar to what happened with cars though. Not because of any parallel in technology, but simply the cycle of denial->acceptance. > [...] > Your Nissan would indeed get you fine from A to B - but I wonder what > you yould say when you'd be barred to drive there by some idiot in a > company uniform at a tull station who tells you you're not allowed > because you don't have a Chrymler.
