~~ ~~ AMAZING AIR CAR FROM INDIA ~~ ~~

~~ "This is the same company which a few months back invented a car that costs only $2500 new. BUT it's not available in the USA. Why is it that a gasless vehicle that eliminates the reason to buy oil from foreign countries hasn't even been noticed by US manufacturers? How bad can this be for anybody, anywhere in the world -- except, perhaps,for the oil tycoons?"

~~ ~~ "The Compressed Air Car, developed by Motor Development International (MDI) Founder Guy Negre, might be the best thing to happen to the motor engine and to people all over the world.

~~ The $12,700 CityCAT, one of the planned Air Car models, reaches 68 mph, and goes for a range of 125 miles. It will take only a few minutes for the CityCAT to refuel at gas stations equipped with custom air compressor units. MDI says it should cost only around $2 to fill the car up with 340 liters of air!

~~ The Air Car will be starting production soon, thanks to India's TATA Motors.

Footnote:
-- Machine translation is notoriously inaccurate. It takes the common sense of a human being to make sense of language translation, because language, which is a human invention after all, is overladen with innuendo. The choice of words by the speaker must be relayed through the careful selection of words by the adept translator.
-- Machines cannot and never will be able to effectively achieve that skill, only people will. And it takes skill, talent and a professional eye and ear to do the translation justice; otherwise you risk ending up offending the listener by inappro-
priate cultural boo-boos or missing the point of the oration altogether. Just because you have two hands doesn’t make you a brain surgeon, and just because you speak another language doesn’t make you a translator. Both take immense skill, special talent and lots of training.

-- -- Thought of the day:

-- "The important thing is not being afraid to take a chance. Remember, the greatest failure is to not try. Once you find something you love to do, be the best at doing it."

Eureka, you found it!! "Yes!" Here is the source of the 'stocked pond,' the undis-covered 'end of the rainbow' with its pot of gold. --> I've been thinking. And probably you should too: On the one hand, you don't want to re-invent the wheel - and on the other hand the wheel for you may have already been invented? After all, there's over seven million U.S. patents and over thirty-million foreign patents. -- Hmmm -- Eureka, you found it!! "Yes!" Here is the source of the 'stocked pond,' the undiscovered 'end of the rainbow' with its pot of gold. -- Do you see? Open your eyes. -- You can research and develop--you are smarter than the guy who thought of it years ago. You can pick up the invention for nothing - it's 'public' - and now you can 'make it work!!' Just check it out to see that you aren't infringing - you know - stepping on someone else's 'live patent.' GO FOR IT! --> Go to: --> "Bicycle Built for Two" for example. --> and "The Bicycle" --> And the real thing --> "Xtracycle" --> and read about "Getting Started as an Entrepreneuer"

--> When my father came to America at the turn of the 20th Century, he heard that the streets were paved with gold.

[Well, finding my mother and falling in love in St. Louis had a lot to do with it! All of his family were in Brooklyn, New York. He married here and moved there.

--> "The number of American-born science and engineering students is plummeting." says Jerry MacArthur Hultin, a dean at Stevens Institute of Technology in New Jersey. In fact, 48 percent of the doctorates awarded at Stevens in 2001 went to foreign students." Quoted from Readers' Digest, March 2002, page 69. -- "Foreign-born scientists and engineers account for a third of the technical work force in Silicon Valley, says AnnaLee Saxenian, a political scientist of the University of California at Berkeley. Fully a quarter of the high-tech companies started there in the 1990s, she adds, are run by Chinese and Indian entrepreneurs." -- 26% of U.S. patents are created by foreign-born people -- "That's the situation now; over the next decade America will need 50 percent more people with science degrees, according to NASA administrator Dan Goldin. Where will we get them?"

-- ONLY 29% of America's 4th Graders and 18% of America's High School Seniors show a proficiency in science.
