Yeah this is totally believable. One rogue engineer who clearly did it all by himself. He just wanted to save the company a few dollars out of pure love for it. Clearly it's his and only his fault with no boundary conditions that could have influenced his decision in any meaningful ways. In fact, there's even a GM company memo that states "Hey Ray, just do what is sensible engineering-wise and don't worry about cost. It's kewl." But no, Ray just had to go rogue. Just had to do it his way. Man. Typical Ray thing. Cheers, Johannes -- >> Wo hattest Du das Beben nochmal GENAU vorhergesagt? > Zumindest nicht öffentlich!
