The smaller number is partly explained by the ability of engineers to design very complex parts for the molding process that would not be feasible with the huge stamping presses and dies used to make steel parts.
"Rather than a huge boot stamping on a human face forever, it's a corporation that changes its logo every week," said Bragg, at a press conference in London convened by independent music association WIN.
And if the use of carbon-fibre composites were to spread from sports cars to more workaday models, the huge steel-stamping presses and robot welding lines would vanish from car factories.Additive manufacturing, like anything else digital, is already becoming both cheaper and more effective.
Toward the end of the show, Mr. Stiles reminded his listeners, "You can always catch me for dinner every Friday night at Three Guys From Italy in beautiful Belleville, N.J., where you can reminisce while dancing to the big band sounds on a huge, postage-stamp size-dance floor".
So you work as an "office worker" where you eat mandatory donuts and use huge rubber stamps to hire and fire contractors, and you sabotage cars as a mechanic by replacing their most important parts with flowerpots.
