Subject: RE: Mr Ed Boysun (in a stern teacher voice)




This quote is from news story on Alexander Winton, he was pioneer in manufacturing of autos and semi truck

Alexander Winton====== I began to be pointed out as “the fool who is fiddling with a buggy that will run without being hitched to a horse.” My banker called on me to say: “Winton, I am disappointed in you.”

That riled me, but I held my temper as I asked, “What’s the matter with you?” He bellowed: “There’s nothing the matter with me. It’s you! You’re crazy if you think this fool contraption you’ve been wasting your time on will ever displace the horse.”
