You mean like Jimmy Carter? Yes, one engineer gives all the lawyers in Washington a good run for their money.

Why do you insist that anecdote = data?

True, but with engineer I mean active, not "got a degree twentysome years ago and framed it".

No. I was talking about Cliff Sterns. He was an EE in the military.

Why do you think the NUMMI plant was shut down? It might get a little glimmer of hope now that Tesla wants to build electric cars there in a little corner of that huge plant. But Toyota doesn't build there anymore, that's now history.

Oh, and AFAIK many of the Dogde trucks are made in Mexiko.

Perhaps Michael took the above personally?

AFAIK he ran the family's peanut farm after his service in the Navy. I meant people who actually _worked_ as an engineer for a significant amount of time and accomplished successful designs there.

That might as well have been the underlying cause. I know several businesses that closed to get out from underneath that.

I'd have no problems buying an American truck or large sedan such as a Crown Victoria. Smaller cars, not likely.

Why do you think Toyota moved out of Kalifornica? Why haven't you? Toyota still manufactures a *lot* of their NA cars in the US. Hundai has a plant fifty miles down the road from me and Kia has a new plant 30 miles the other way.

...and Canuckistan. Wouldn't have one. Why are you changing the subject?

Not to mention Kalifornica at it's best.

Yes.

What's disappointing is that former engineers are usually bad politicians, like Jimmy Carter. And the principal education of many modern terrorists seems to have been engineering. Bad engineering, judging by the quality of the explosives.

I'm glad the Times Square moron thought that "fertilizer" would explode, and the other idiots set their shorts and shoes on fire, but I'd feel better if they had been sociology majors.

That was the last UAW plant Toyota had. Their NUMMI investment is, I suspect, all PR, and cheap PR at $50 million.

The Tesla is of course absurd.

Most VWs sold in the US are assembled in Mexico. I think most Hondas are assembled here.
