Woz has done some admirable things (my favorite was his stint as a high school teacher)... but it appears in recent years that he is in “anything for a buck” mode. Well funded Silicon Valley startups seem to be able to purchase his services as a tech visionary. Some of his appearances have been truly cringeworthy -…

Rubber does not age particularly well, seals shrink, gas turns to varnish, water in the brake fluid rusts the lines, etc...…
