The irony is not lost here


OK, final post about Edison/Ford but had to note that the irony is not lost here. At the Link, I found a small article in The Detroit News with a few Ford/Edison quotes. They are a bit disconcerting given our present energy crisis. Let's see, you have the guy who controls electric, the guy who invented the gas car industry(vs. Edison's electric car which Edison said was less superior than Ford's creation) and Harvey Firestone is in the mix along with President Harding. I wonder what would come of our president going on camping trips with the top inventors/industrialists searching for green innovations/solutions? (My own question has just made me depressed.) Mr. Gottfried just pointed out the true irony- these masterminds that set up the destruction of natural resources (they didn't know this future in their defense) loved to hang out in the wilderness. Where are the great thinkers of our time and why isn't the president hanging out with them... in the wilderness.
