I really hope that you won’t get defensive, but take the comments as constructive suggestions.
As you yourself point out, these crashes now seem to be nothing more than some idiot doing something stupid. The value of those posts no longer exists. I personally find many of your posts interesting, and sometimes of such importance that it actually gets sent to and is read by those making policy and spending decisions on EVs - particularly those I advise. But your filter on what gets sent out should change with the times, and the facts. Just a suggestion. But if it doesn’t, some may find the signal to noise ratio dropping too low for their tastes. That would be unfortunate. My $.02. I always know that I can just use the delete key. - Mark Sent from my Fuel Cell powered iPhone On Jan 25, 2019, at 10:57 AM, brucedp5 via EV <[email protected]> wrote: >> Rush complains ... > I'm tired of seeing all these reports about Tesla accidents ...
