Sure.... I heard this whole "birthday" thing is noting but a big scam!
Why would anyone plunk their money down on an imaginary number, it's not like you can actually touch age, or drive it around for God sake. My wife keeps telling me she's turning 28, and she keeps setting her birthday back year after year. I can pretty much prove to you that the numbers just don't add up, you think those numbers are adding up to something big? Well they're really just a count down to your demise. Don't eeeeeven get me going on "anniversaries" oh yeah, like those are "real".
I feel so much better telling others how to think, I just want to let you know I'm actually rooting for birthdays, shit I'm "all in" on them!

I did some looking at Elio Motors URL and web traffic reports (primarily Alexa) yesterday and saw some interesting things, for example, there is a relationship between reach on their website and daily reservations. It will be very interesting to see where this weeks numbers are.
Thanks for this John! It is definitely interesting how web traffic does appear to match up well with new reservations numbers. I had already realized that based on the numbers we have so far it appears that February will be the best month for new reservations since September and the web traffic graph does reflect this trend as well.
This information also demonstrates that despite all the doom and gloom going around inside the Elio follower community that EM is not being as negatively affected by the recent news as many people believe. EM is in fact moving forward with marketing just fine despite the recent news and seeing an uptick in reservations which will hopefully continue to improve when they are able to get the engine unveiling figured out and with major events upcoming such as NASCAR the race this weekend and the New York Auto Show in about a months time.

I'll take you're word for it, I was a music major, I can count to 12 without taking off my shoes and conveniently, 12 is the biggest number I really need in a measure.

I only put down a small amount with the hope that Elio will be built. I did check with my finace advisior but there is no way to invest.

Just noticed this post on FB, looks to me like they are saying they have surpassed 40,000 as of yesterday.

having reached over 40K is reasonable .... there certainly isn't any indication of anything major being wrong
