I heard that Germany made smart moves toward energy sustainability ahead
of the pack and VW makes some engines that can endure a lean fuel ratio
pretty well. Not sure how to turn that to my favor regarding red
handedness. I would like to gain more experience in R&D but am locked
into the grind and busyness, it was nice to see an exhaust system idea I
had used by BMW but judging the performance they didn't go with the best
design. I may have missed your point too. :)
What I meant was that we squandered a golden era of wealth in pursuing
selfishness while social progress took the back seat. I think justice is
defined by the vision and capacity to perceive the lacking of it, it
colors the world in a way that many can consider an unnecessary
expenditure but for those who cannot turn off that perception ideally
will emerge volition for compassion to recreate the picture into a story
worth sharing for generations regardless of identity or group memberships.
