Who the hell is Chris Martin?

It's not brown. CP.

I always keep a spare flame suit in my back pocket. I am not known for not starting fires...

I could give a shit less what people think of me, and I tend to make that apparent. I just don't want some dude being all up in my space holding an umbrella for me.

I think I remember you posting about two people on bikes too in Brazil. Still makes me laugh thinking I was cruising around with my professor through Campos on the back of a bike with him. Not too much lanesplitting though, if at all. (which I was glad for. Hungover/sick on the back of a bike is bad enough)

Your comments are always amusing. It's as if you like to get angry with people and insult them.

H/t for mentioning that; I shoulda read everything before I posted.

Beyond incompetent management, burdensome social engineering, and thoughtless construction choices, the biggest thing that caused Fordlandia to fail was that the Latex trees can't be grown in plantation density plantings in the Americas, because of native diseases and parasites. Ford could have done everything right,…

Well, it was that, and the incompetent managers he hired. Fordlandia was created because Ford wanted his own source of rubber, so he started this to circumvent the British & their rubber plantations in S.E. Asia. There was a complete ignorance of the area where Ford wanted Fordlandia to be built. Metal roofed…

Another interesting fact, it wasn't Henry Ford's idea to make the modern moving assembly line, it was one of his workers who was going to the butchers to pick up some meat. The guy was impressed & infatuated in the way the pig carcass was hung on a hook & passed through different butchering stations that were experts…

And that would drive the costs to insane levels and wipe out any small and medium sized teams. That idea went out the window with Can-Am racing in the 70s.

I got it on my "Downloads" App, in my iPhone. It made me smile.

Amen.

I added Versa, just for you.

Flow chart is broken. Needs more Nissan Versa

Are you the one who opened the door on the mailbox with the window open?

Tim is that you? Just kidding, we used to the same thing. Some great memories from doing stupid shit like that back in the day.

I'm with you.
