Hi guys,

Further debate over whether Dyson out-Hoovers Hoover -- or whatever -- may now all be a loss.  He's just announced that he's out to make an electric car.  Please see following link: http://jalopnik.com/396805/dyson-developing-electric-car-will-probably-suck

Best,

Dusty,

Carmine always posts as if it is fact when he is as lost as last year's Easter egg.  He can not stand defeat so he just asks questions to twist things.  He is like the school bully.  Always cowers when confronted.

Hello Severus:

You're right! 

BTW, I recall you mentioning a long time ago when the discussion came up that SEBO vacuums didn't have a CRI approval.  I note that they are still not in the queue for the CRI green lable either.  At least not yet.  While Windsor appear to be zipping through CRI on the fast track.

Hello Venson:

This was posted yesterday on this thread.  By M00seUK and DIB.  A short interrupted discussion followed.  I opined that if dyson can't improve the run time on its DC16 beyond 5 minutes [and has resorted to discounting them by $100] after 2 plus years, what makes us think it can develop a car that runs on batteries?

I said yesterday that it was smarter to develop a long lasting auto battery.  There is a $300,000,000 contest for developing a long lasting battery.

Once again J D has proven to be smarter than you Carmine.  Is it any wonder that you are so envious.

Thanks Carmine and my apologies to DIB and M00seUK. Dyson is quite a dabbler.  Call me me when he makes a good blender.

Exxon-Mobil is smarter than all of us and has the resources to do it.

McCain offers prize for cutting-edge battery

Campaign LM Otero / Associated Press
Sen. John McCain tells supporters in Fresno that a can-do U.S. can craft a cleaner future. He’s also proposing a $5,000 tax break for those who buy zero-emission vehicles.
In Fresno, he says he would award $300 million to whoever developed a new device that could efficiently power cars.

CIRCUIT CITY, which is suffering from poor sales like many big box retailers, has dropped the dyson vacuum line from its stores.  Keeps the old/to be discountinued dysons [nothing new from dyson at CC] on the Web Site [at least for now].  All dysons at CC are at reduced/discounted prices from MSRP.
