Hope you return for another year. Have a happy snow-apocalypse, polar-vortex, or whatever snarls our transportation infrastructure this Christmas gets labelled. Visiting the relatives in the dead of winter made more sense when it was just a sleigh (the original autonomous driving system with a living will to return without injuries to a warm and well provided stable) ride away. Whereas, "It takes around 6 million parts [manufactured around the world] to create one Boeing 747 aircraft." For example, there are 40000 rivets in just one wing. Time for a rethink?

Your work here has been helpful to me. The content is reliably focused and 'dense.' Making it very useful for this typically equity myopic trying to peel away some of the layers obscuring their understanding of how FI sees and interprets events. Hard at first, then rewarding.
