[6pack] Problem.

[Foster, Stan (HP IT)]

I think the problem is that we are a small community and when people like Art
and Rick and others make the investment to design unique solutions and tool up
to make them at very affordable process they have little incentive to continue
doing that if someone else clones their ideas and then undercuts their price
without having to eat the startup costs. John has done nothing illegal and he
may think he has done nothing wrong but to some of us it just doesn't seem
fair and its not like we don't have other opportunities for people to
innovate.

Add me to the list of potential tranny cover bump customers.

What if John's is better, or easier to install? Or maybe Steve's is
better and this whole discussion isn't necessary.  I don't think one
solution to a problem should foreclose further consideration of it.
We'd still be making tools out of bone it that were the case.

We should all be supportive of those who take the time and effort to be
innovative but when new ideas or new versions of old ideas are
suggested, we should ask questions about whether its actually better or
not.  I see on Bob's website on this issue there a number of suggested
remedies but he likes the delrin option the best.  Why not ask John why
his is better?
