We aren't too bright, but tough as nails. What other sport would a guy take a blade to the face and get 60 stiches and come back and play the last half of the game. Or this that happened last year:

Guy basically died, had the defibulators used, then asked if he could go back in the game when he regained conciousness.

What else is there to do on here for the next 18 months besides guessing, conjecturing, and wondering? Some people are taking a break from the forum and have stated as much.
I am enjoying the, very-loosely-related-to-the-Elio discussions. Basically social media with an underlying thread tying us to a common theme.

Me too. But, I'll trade that for discussions about the engine run video and/or the loan approval and/or prototype builds....

16 days to reach 4,000. Yet you think it will take 8 weeks to get to #3898? How's that work?

Easy. Easy. The plant can go that fast but I think the slowdown will be elsewhere. We had a flat tire shut down GM there for two hours. A truck from Johnson Controls there in Shreveport got a flat delivering the seats. I was an engineer at Johnson Controls at the time. I'm giving Elio a little break in the timeline for supplier issues basically.

He must have been out of his mind to play the second half!! The brain scramble must have damaged his basic knowledge- there are no second halfs in hockey!!

Just an observation-
The most popular sports in the US, is directly related to amount of commercials that can be shown
Football, and Basketball on top ( the last 2 minutes of either can sometimes last 15 minutes (with timeouts/reviews/challanges/injuries
Hockey is next (and with the recent inclusion of timeouts)
and English Football (you know soccer) with no time outs and only a 1/2 time is like watching Public Television or premium cable!!
I've come to love Eng football as a result of it!- It's really a great game, and they really do get injured aside from their "flops"
I'll be watching the Superbowl- but keeping my eyes on the wonderful commercials!!!
Go Hawks- (gotta, my two kids live in Seattle, and it'll be in my next life if my home team ever sees a Super Bowl(Miami)
