I almost missed mine this year...Norm doesn't let them carry over if you don't use them.

Well, and the gawd awful crap that is used to produce our food so it tastes good and is cheap. S'pose that is technology too...

I was a formulator for almost three years for a company that made food flavors. It changed my life and diet. I was the person that took the ingredient list and mixed all the stuff together to make the flavoring product. Some of the stuff I made that went into very well known products was evil. Anyone who thinks they can read labels and know what's in the food they're eating is naive. This is the reason why I eat zero processed crap. The stuff is a lot worse than the label will lead you to believe.

I wouldn't mind some battery assist, I would honestly ride to work pretty often if I had that.
I only need maybe 5 or 10 minutes worth, to get me over the hills without sweating so I don't have to showe at work.
