I’ve heard that from a couple other people who I see regularly at shows. I hear its a huge event on the scale of Jefferson or Iola, is that so?
Here’s a link to a story about the Home Depot layoffs:

I think the days of this old idea of you verses me, reflected especially in the quote about “anti-business types”, is gone now with Obama. Hopefully that will mean real change.
Also I heard 50,000 people nationwide lost their jobs today. Did anyone see 60 minutes this weekend? If not, here’s the emotional clip about a town hard hit by these layoffs:

I’ve updated the Rate The Show form because I had a few settings setup wrong. Now it should all work correctly. If you haven’t yet rated Automotion 2008, you can easily do it here. What do you think of the new Rate The Show setup?

Like said above I hope these cars get into museums where they can still be seen. They are certainly rare beauties. What surprises me is how GM and the other auto makers scrapped their concept cars. Granted they couldn’t see the future but those are very very valuable nowadays and that would be a cool thing for a company to have in their collection – their “what ifs”
