"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."

Amen. I'm a firm believer in the KISS principle.

“The most terrifying force of death comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone.
TRUE TERROR will arrive at these people’s door, and they will cry, scream, and beg for mercy…
but it will fall upon the deaf ears of the Men who just wanted to be left alone.”

Simple yet elegant, has long worked here.

I realized they went off the deep end when I found out they're multiplexing the wiring in cars. For example, one common wire controls all four windows. I guess each window switch has a microcontroller in it to operate the microcontroller in each specific window motor.

Cranks work fine for me.

I realized this is probably more your bailiwick than mine. Did I sufficiently explain the function of window cranks to Lod?

THE INFAMOUS HYDRO-LECTRIC SYSTEM PART I

Severed fingers were a distinct possibility

Not bad. But you forgot to mention that when the window crank handle breaks off you can replace it with a set of Mini Vise Grips.

Cool. Never heard of it.

I thought you were talking about hydroelectric power generation.

That new-fangled stuff gets me all flummoxed.

It makes the system Esso described seem simple by comparison. Or at least much cheaper to manufacture.

The thing that chaps my ass to this very moment, is the elimination of vent/wing windows.

With that, I think I'll gear up and see if I can get that stupid electric tractor mobile. I hope I can do it without having to pull the battery pack out.
