(Watt some may draw parallels from with the "ebike" and the "automotive industry". Margarine vs. butter.)

See also maybe "The Great American streetcar scandal" as first reported here in ES Bible by TD back in 2009:

Seen in newz... somewhere: "Ebike manufacturer waited 18 months to tell regulators about hacking risk"

A federal judge has ordered Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton to explain why he should not be held in contempt for enforcing state laws that impede gays riding ebikes.

Oh look! A Handy-Dandy (TM) battery case!

Target says it will no longer separate ebikes into boys and girls sections.

Oddly, missing unique Mode 31 (ebikes).

Disturbing when folks yell at you about forgetting yer power-assist.

In China folks are more relaxed about the dangers of "second hand smoke".

In local newz, traffic situation heating up... "Welcome HOT lanes to Ontario: Editorial" in one local newspaper:
http://www.thestar.com/opinion/2015/08/31/welcome-hot-lanes-to-ontario-editorial.html

One rude [C}omment... by somebuddy (Cough cough):

"HOT"??? Well, rumor is, focus groups found was better than SMURF (Suck Money from Uber Rich Folks) Even SAT was better `til Gov read stood for Stab And Twist. Sigh. Simple solution maybe? Just shrink the size of the vehicles and roof w/sloped solar panel rooftops re snow and rain. (See Canadian "Power-assisted Bicycle", use already hugely popular in Europe and China. Added bonus, waaay cheaper to own and operate.)

[LockH]

Hehe. How an ebiker might amuse themselves on a "slow" day.

Type the word "traffic" into Google News search engine. (Sort by date for the latest "news", mostly about large, heavy vehicles that most ebikers gave up years ago.)
