Windguy- Thanks for the enlightening and informative video.
Henry Ford ran into much the same criticism, phobia, and pearl-clutching mania when his mechanical vehicles first took to the roads a century ago. Decades ago my mother would not purchase a car with "cruise control" because she was convinced everyone would fall asleep behind the wheel.
