Hi elmatador,

There are no craftsmen at BMW anymore. There are only computer aided design. computer aided manufacturing. Computer aided crash tests.

Carmaking has been deskilled long time ago.


Maybe I could get a job as a crash dummy??? <g>

And the only skilled human left in the factory has a big row of buttons to punch, with pictures of "318", "328", "Z3" ... - same as Walmart cash registers with "Cash back" to help persons with alternative abilities.

And the earth is flat as always. Watch your driving, Elmat, you may fall off.
