I feel you on this one, but building an industry on misinformation is not the way.

Another thought: maybe we need to stop being so obsessed and utterly dependent on cars in general. Live locally, support your community, become more self-reliant, leverage personal technogy.

If it is PR mastery (not convinced) it's in the tone of the writing.

It reminds me of a notice of late payment I received from The Economist magazine some years back. It was so darn polite and diplomatic, I kept it in a shoebox ever since.

Now, whenever there's an outstanding payment issue with a client, I read the letter for inspiration.

I'm in full agreement that the Tesla owners should step forward and give their side of the story.

I can empathize with why they wouldn't though, as this seems like a (ahem) charged and highly public issue.

This comment doesn't clearly refute claims made by the original blog post. The statement "they probably aren't actually bricks, but cars in need of servicing" sounds inconclusive.

All I am saying is if people are going to refute the original blog post as "nonsense" and will "confront it with facts", then do so convincingly and without contradiction.

Is there a "print" function with Sublime Text, for the odd time I need to print something out? How about converting a file to PDF?

If someone really wants to stop contributing to pollution, oil spills, energy dependence etc - don't buy a car. Any car.

Manufacturing cars requires a tremendous amount of energy and natural resources. Everything we manufacture and consume punishes the earth.

Myself, I've decided to eschew driving. Our perceived dependence on automobiles is insane. The roads are insane. No car is going to make me cool. I want no part of it.

I likely won't. Reason being, if I want customized, "filtered" searches, Google is where to be. If I want privacy and/or unfiltered searches, I'll use Duck Duck Go and Blekko.

If trust becomes an issue with Google, I won't just clear my search history, I'll leave for good.

I call linkbait on the title.

I would've fallen for that. Thanks for the heads up.
