	GM pulls plug on '08 line of cars - 03/21/05 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		GM is dropping the rear-drive architecture on which the car is based.
		GM's decision to kill the Zeta program puts the brakes on development of the next generation Pontiac GTO sports car, and new entries for Chevrolet, Buick and Pontiac.
		GM Chairman Rick Wagoner last week said there would be no reduction in capital spending in light of the abrupt profit warning and signaled new product programs would be safe from the budget ax.

		The winds of change blow at hurricane force in the GM Aerodynamics Laboratory (GMAL) in Warren, Mich. Driven by a 4,000-horsepower electric motor and pushed by a 43-foot propeller, the wind is on-call 24 hours a day to provide data on aerodynamic forces.
		The GM wind tunnel and similar facilities used by GM Racing engineers in Indianapolis; Charlotte, N.C.; Marietta, Ga.; and Ottawa, Ont, give GM's affiliated teams a powerful tool in their efforts to build a winning combination.
		GM Racing has the resources, the knowledge and the equipment to assist GM teams in their aero development programs.

	Platform mergers: scaled back, but still part of GM's planning for the 1990s - Technology & Trends Ward's Auto World - ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		Only one full-blown platform merger is scheduled for GM cars during the next decade, and that one - which involves the company's L-, N- and J-body cars - is expected to be carried out over a three model-year period, 1992, '93 and '94.
		GM now has both the flexible manufacturing techniques and methods needed at its stamping and assembly plants to tum out more distinguishable cars in the same line with a high degree of automation.
		If GM had gone through with some of the platform consolidations that once were planned for the '90s, some confusion probably would have occurred.

		Their use is most substantial in the crop sector, where the GM crop species involved are ones that are extensively traded internationally.
		As in other years, the vast majority (73%) of GM crops cultivated in 2003 were modified for herbicide tolerance, while 18% were modified for insect resistance and 8% were modified for both traits.
		After individual GM products have been approved, the regulatory framework may include provisions for post-release monitoring of the impacts of GMOs, where feedback from the public, especially those in rural areas where they are produced, would be of particular importance.

	GM FastLane Blog: Now that we've got your attention
		GM never mentions the amount petrochemicals used to make ethanol and how the process is a remarkably inefficient use of oil.
		GM complains about poor “perception” in the market versus the “reality” of their products, there is no way anyone is going to convince someone shopping on the internet that a I-5 engine is as good as a V-6.
		GM toys seem to lack significant distribution in major malls in major tourism areas and during the holidays compared with your foreign competition.

		GM Canada also produced a special order of Malibu sedans around 1981 for the Iraqi government, although the order was cancelled.
		A new front-wheel drive Malibu was introduced in 1997 on an extended wheelbase version of the GM N platform with Pontiac Grand Am, Buick Skylark, Oldsmobile Achieva, and Oldsmobile Alero.
		GM has been criticized for having repetitive models in its various brands, so the Epsilon lineup will be much more focused.

	GM FastLane Blog: Myths and Facts about Fuel Economy
		GM is intent on satisfying the needs of buyers: small cars to heavy duty trucks, fuel-sipping vehicles for urban rush hours to performance vehicles for an adrenaline rush.
		We've already seen that GM aren't sitting on their behinds when it comes to researching alternative fuels (hydrogen & electricity) and as far as the current lineup of engines are concerned, technology such as Displacement on Demand is extending their long term viability and making the most of the resources we still have.
		I know how capitalism works, and based on the fact that GM has gone from the point in the '60s where they would stop making cars to avoid anti-trust lawsuits (their market share would be too high) to the sub 30 percent point where they are today, GM understands this, too.

		Sometimes I think that the people in charge of minivans at GM are in their 20s, single and never had any children.
		GM just never could get it right, as its minivans had numerous shortcomings, such as bad styling, the wrong engine, the wrong transmission and the wrong seating.
		And while GM made extensive revisions to its old minivan platform, the new version is no wider than the old model.

	GM foods: Fooling the world
		Europeans were told that their insistence on labelling and regulation of GM food and crops would restrict the development of a technology desperately needed by the poor.
		GM 'controlled-ripening' coffee, being developed in the USA, does away with the need for coffee-pickers - so threatening with unemployment (and therefore malnutrition) up to 60 million destitute coffee-pickers in over 50 nations.
		Through the 'GM or Death' aid policy it may be possible to force the poor to eat GM food but it still seems difficult to force poor nations to plant GM crops.

		The redesign was radical compared to the 1989 redesign of its midsize cousin, the Pontiac 6000, due to the fact that no longer beared a resemblence to its X-body ancestors.

		The Umbrella Expert Group (UEG) for release N of the platform decides to propose that a particular feature be removed.

		The MIDI package might be removed in a future release of the platform, but whether it is actually removed, and in which release, is a decision for future expert groups.

	HemoGenix - The leader in stem-celled hemotoxicity and research.
		The HALO Platform was developed because of the need for a stem cell hemotoxicity detection system with a rapid, non-subjective and standardized output with high-throughput capability that could be used at all stages of drug discovery and development.
		The HALO Platform is a highly developed and refined assay tool that can be used by researchers in academia, governmental institutions, clinical facilities and industry alike.
		Due to the flexibility and versility of the HALO Platform, HemoGenix was able to develop the HALO Kit Platform with over 360 different kit variations with multiple formats to allow researchers the ability to detect single or up to 8 cell populations from 5 species simultaneously.

	Platform sharing lets automakers shave costs on different models (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		Another mistake that car companies can make when sharing platforms is to completely dilute the heritage and flavor of a car line -- a practice that enrages a devout group of purists who have become devoted to a car line.
		In fact, the platform sharing process can be done well, with experts pointing to Toyota and Nissan as leaders in the field.
		Enthusiasts who value uniqueness in their automotive fare long for a day when all cars are built on their own platform with engines and components not shared across the board.

		The GM receiver is a superior unit and performed on a par (and sometimes better) as compared with the Garmin G-III+ (except the GM cannot use common external AMPLIFIED antennas).

		I just got off of the phone with a PR staffer from the General, who provided me with a little bit more detail, but by no means the full story, on the General's decision to put a "stop sale" on the GMC Acadia and Saturn Outlook.
		Dealers received an immediate stop-action communique over the weekend from the home office at the RenCen of the General's decision to immediately halt sales of the two models in its threesome of Lambda-platform CUV's already on the market, the GMC Acadia and the Saturn Outlook.
		Jill Lajdziak, who onstage at the LA Auto Show came off the very epitome of a graduate of Uncle Chuck's Graduate Course in Public Speaking of Des Moines, IA, LLC, has confirmed that the Opel/Vauxhall Astra will indeed be joining the ranks of the Saturn lineup come 2008.
