Prius and cosmic rays...

I knew it. It was the cosmic rays for any continuous state of motion, like me coming into WdC.

Something about the cosmic rays, in some cases they work for you; in other cases, they get you in real trouble. Now, the Toyota acceleration debacle is the result of cosmic rays. No kidding.

Next thing we’ll hear will be a car company being abducted by the aliens, or will it be an alien invasion of the worldwide auto industry? Maybe, we should all start biking.

I couldn’t help but put this in my blog. Truth is stranger than fiction, and this thing with Prius is stranger than yesterday’s Computers v.s. General Motors joke. And I thought I'd heard it all...

See for yourselves:
