Hi,

In case you missed it, I've started sharing interesting news, projects, and other stuff I find and view/read - it's at the bottom of each newsletter.

One of the entries is particularly important for Automotive Electronics subscribers to read, so I'm busting the rules and posting an external site right here at the top. If you're in the North American auto industry, I think you need to forward this one to upper management, even if you build and drive diesels.

We're in another "no more horse*poop*" on our streets inflection point and the recent geniuses that lead us have hitched the country to the wrong horse.

enjoy stirring up the poop,

-andy
