Re: Better mouse trap?

This discussion is a lot of crap. To call someone's designed product a wheel is insulting to all those who exercise their creative talents.

Would you, given correct circumstances, purchase a copy of an art masterpiece? Something like 'Mona Lisa', just because it is a good copy and is cheap? I know a guy that laboriously and faithfully copys works of the 'old masters'. Does that make him an artist? Does that make what he does Art?

Peter, if you have a good idea, great. The world can always use a better idea, another creative solution. We don't need just another wheel. We don't need another rip off of a truly good idea that has a proven track record. In order to provide the world with something of REAL VALUE, you must go all the way and make it a truly revolutionary, creative product, not just a copy and not on the back of another's hard work. Regardless of the rationale to the contrary.

Guess what. The rationale that you expressed for the chassis design already happened. The ideas are not original, but there are other ways that are.

Get in the pool or go home.
