OK, to put some Ford related content back into the conversation, (and Chev/Buick/Dodge/Studebaker/Pontiac/AMC/GMC/Lincoln/Cadillac/Desoto/Mercury and all the rest), take a look at the empty streets and highways these days. Look at the bridges and the overpasses and the parking lots. Look at the Downtowns and the Uptowns and the neighborhood shopping districts. From my perspective, I haven't seen such a sight since Sunday afternoons in 1948. Come to think of it, I didn't see it then either, because I was home setting the table for Sunday dinner, usually Chicken and Dumplings with home made bread and real butter. Nobody on the streets, all at home, family time, with Amos & Andy on the radio, and after dinner, turn on the TV to stare at the Test Pattern before Uncle Miltie.
