That's me (from two years back), and I have a tiny Indie camera, do I look like a dictator?

The Law of Automation is staying put, and for those that don't approve, you have the freedom to leave England and become a citizen of a country owned by Apple, Google, and Microsoft - if that's the sort of economy you think is a healthy one.  I don't, and I prefer real whips to virtual ones!

Swwwwwwwwwwipe! - eheheheheheheheheh!

Game content developers would be permitted to sell content for games online providing the transaction also includes a physical copy of the product and the download is merely for convenience.  As long as what is being sold involves a physical copy of the product too, that's fine, because it ensures that nothing got manufactured without contributing to the economy.  I really don't know what's so hard to grasp about this concept.  The concept ensures that systems such as Apple has cannot starve the economy in any way.

I assume that answers Male_M3dia's question as well, it's exactly the same, seriously, it's that simple!

Anyway, Shane, regards the Robin, kinda cool to hear you have a fondness (or at least a curiosity) for the Robin.  The Robin has a cult following now, and it thoroughly derves to have one.  It's basically a metal spaceframe covered with a one-piece GRP bodyshell.  It makes them light and economical.  But having three wheels means that they're classed as a motorcycle over here, not a car (which is beneficial in more ways than one).  I've not bothered to look into USA laws, but there should be no reason for a Robin to be illegal in the USA, not in any state, not unless that state forbids three-wheeled motorcycles.  The Robin isn't any form of ATV, so your government couldn't possibly class it as one.

BTW, that video Doric linked to has been edited and a lot of the funny stuff removed - weird.

Anyway, you might not be aware of this, but the latest Robins were manufactured after a comeback.  An ex-Jaguar dude decided to put his own money into saving the factory during the neverending recession.  You'd be amazed at how tight things got, and here's the story of how it survived, they really worked their balls off to save it.

And if that's not enough, as we're talking about quirky British inventions, you might like to know that the Robin was not the only one, cause there's also the Sinclair C5 that was produced by Sir Clive Sinclair, an inventor.  It's a three wheeler, but it runs on batteries and is only a one seater.  Again, it's basically a metal spaceframe covered in a plastic body.  Here's two videos, the first one is the original commercial for it.  The second one is of two enthusiasts showing how they work and how easy they are to fix.  Today, they have meet-ups for them, they actually go out in convoys on the road, cause again, just as with the Robin, the C5 is a cult icon now.  Anyway, I hope you watch the second one all the way through because they eventually both go out for a drive in them, show what fun they are ;-)

And guess who designed the aerodynamic bodywork for the C5? ... Lotus!

Anyway peeps, I hope I've explained my take on the economy, cause like it or not, that's the way it's staying, call it British determination.  I hope RorrKonn appreciates meeting his personal online ScareCrow, and that Primorge has the itch to stand in front of my camera in a future Indie production :-D
