Supercalafragalistic!!! I was trying to think of an adjective to adequately reflect how incredible this car, this company and this video really is. And like someone else pointed out, done with such humble elegance. The engineering and design elegance of this vehicle and the calm, cool and humerus presentation by these three men speak volumes about what now America can claim as our technological leadership in the world. I can’t afford one but boy do I want to drive one. I recent bought a Bolt EUV and it is the best car I’ve ever owned after decades of very nice Honda’s. I’ll be looking to trade in our CRV soon and I’m test driving every car I can get my hands on in these remaining months on my lease. So far I’ve done the Lyriq, Ariya, Blazer, Ionic 6, Mach e, EQS, and the Volvo C40. I plan to rent a Tesla through Turo so I can get a feeling for that. Basically I’m completely sold on total electric. They are so completely quick, quiet, comfortable and completely modern in every way. I think and hope they are the future and its companies like Tesla and people like you who, pioneers in your way, who help create and then lead us into the future. By recognizing China’s investments and both working with while competing with these powerhouse nations on the world stage, you are demonstrating that America continues to be a great nation of imagination, innovation, prosperity and progress.

So very interesting and personal. The distinction between alone and lonely. My wife is very self contained. The plague, as you identify it, was made for her, providing cover for the behavior she chose by nature. We are three, including our little dog and he is the object of our deepest affection. Even our daughter and grandchildren she sees in small doses, as she puts it. Your observation that human connection often leads to stress or being hurt or disappointed is one of the reasons for self isolation. I also think that marriage provides the couple with a certain cocoon of safety. We are alone but we are alone with each other. I have joked we spend half our lives searching for someone to love and the next half avoiding them. Now after so many years together we are more aware that our lives are limited. She often says that she wants to go first. I understand her feelings but I try to lighten it up. Ok but not tonight okay? I think the most important and lasting element of our relationship is trust. As the years transform the early intensity of romance and this belief that we are in perfect harmony, reality will challenge and could crush that early intensity of love. But if you hold on, realize that you are each two and distinctively different people… that first lover’s quarrel…. If you don’t let that break you, you will find what I now consider a much deeper sense of love and that love is trust.
