Don't you ever get tired of stating the blatantly obvious? I really think you should spend more time doing something youre good at, rather than writing these ball-busting, revalation inspiring works of literature that uncover the deepest and darkest secrets of the industry. These 'tricks' the companies use, it's not deceit, its called MARKETING. If you buy it they will sell it. Please, make this the last sheepdog bites.
How about you just stop reading them. I am not busting your balls so quit your bitching. You have a right to read it or not.
Maybe this stuff is is obvious, I don't know. Judging by the responses I often get, it is not common sense, or obvious.
I always thought companies feared lawsuits, and tried to make a safe product, yet some of the stuff coming out is clearly not a good design, much less safe, strong, or a good idea.
Many of these companies cannot make a good product even when it does weigh a lot, now they want to make light parts?
I do not expect everyone to appreciate them, or even like them. My primary goal with them is to make people stand back and look at what the industry is really doing.If you do not find it thought provoking, then do not read them, simple as that.
