He's still around. Seems like he had a successful business career, despite the engine never really getting out of first gear.

I think it ran into problems like the Wankel rotary engine did. Cooling issues, fuel efficiency, high emissions, that sort of thing.

I should add that this is not my field of expertise, at all.

The placid Kangaroo that eats grasses is now turning aggressive with some nasty injuries as a result because people who dont or cant read warning signs keep feeding them foods they arent meant to eat - those high in sugar.Whats worse it can lead to fatal diseases.

Years ago at seal bay on kangaroo Island the authorities had to close off access to the beach and make it guided tours only on a boardwalk 10 metres from it because the naive couldnt just observe the wild seals , no they had to touch them.

I actually had some good news yesterday. I finally rang my Telco to complain of consistently slow NBN speeds and the upshot was, they reduced my plan cost by ten bucks a month and upgraded me to the next speed tier. It obviously pays to complain politely. It was Optus for my fellow Antipodeans.
