GM brake failure: the brake failure / "stop-delivery order" story from yesterday? Turns out this has happened before. I missed it.
Chevrolet spokesman Kevin Kelly told Motor Authority a material used in a sensor connection in the electronic brake boost system of these vehicles may have been contaminated during the material supplier’s production process. This could cause an interruption of communication between the sensor and brake boost system under certain conditions.I still don't know how one corrects a "contamination" problem with a software fix. Whatever. But it turns out this has happened before. Same ol', same ol', I guess.

Spanish app: Sophia's favorite educational app -- the one we downloaded for Spanish from the Apple App store, apparently the number one language app out there. It's not Rosetta Stone. Another example of how in the world did something like Rosetta Stone drop the ball. To be fair, Rosetta Stone is apparently doing very, very well and generally makes the top ten lists. I've been reading reviews comparing the two. One reviewer gave the Spanish app that Sophia uses a "thumbs down" because ..... drum roll .... it's too addictive. LOL. Sophia loves it. She's addicted to it. As soon as she comes over she wants to do her Spanish lesson on "her" iPad kept at the apartment.
Wiki: speaking of which. How did Encyclopedia Britannica drop the ball?
