Revisiting the video issue
...to make a bigger point.
What I get a bit tired of is not negative opinions so much as gratuitous negative spins. Using this example...
Why did Ford not make the video itself? That is supposed to be a telling issue with negative connotations. Why? If one just tries to be objective, I think the easiest and least strained explanation is:
Ford has seen the videos Torvec can produce; wants the video only for internal use, not public, so it does not need lots of polish; maybe wants something just like it has seen before from Torvec to show its dealers what the new product would look like and whether they like what it can do; and all they want is to see the cab inside, and the "Ford" tracked vehicle tearing around the parking area like all the other FTV tapes it has seen. We can do something that simple and do it well. So do it.
And the bigger point I have is that stretching for a negative interpretation is not only gratuitous but hurtful. What do any of us get out of it in a material way? I am not being little Miss Sunshine, I just think this is the simplest explanation.
I am not looking for a personal fight, and I do not this that this is picking one.
