Commercial electric vans will be delivered to FedEx by the end of the year.

Reason #34 Why I Love To Blog

It was pure happenstance that I started to "follow" semiconductors. I became very, very interested when Apple announced the M1 chip. 

From there, the story snowballed.

Within weeks, we learned, and reported on the blog, that there were indications of a growing global shortage of chips.

Tonight we learn that Toyota has halted production in China due to a global semiconductor shortage. From the report, "there have been warning signs about this for month."

I never cared for Nick Saban, although of course there was no basis for that. Just pure (and inappropriate) emotion on my part.

I'm watching the game tonight, a replay of last night's game. 

Based on what sportscasters were saying about him tonight I have an incredible amount of respect for him. I'll leave it at that.

This might only make sense to those who watch "First Take" religiously. LOL.
