Writer's comments
Hi All,
I wrote the story and have a few comments on your comments.
Rocky- I suppose I should thank you for generating interest in my story on this thread. I find it interesting that news worth talking about is often that which people find something negative to comment on. You seem to have made up your mind before reading the article. For instance, I clearly stated the manufacturers felt they would get a clean burning saw with the same power in a year or two. In the meantime we could use our present saws. It won't be 10 years. I'm trying not to get personal, but you complain constantly and attack others, which as you know is against thread rules. You seem unhappy. Perhaps, you should spend some time on a couch talking to someone with a soothing voice.
Nick- We're on the same page, though I won't sign off with, "love".
RBtree- You state that some things are not so accurate. I read it again. Nothing is incorrect. I quoted people, and all my facts came from interviews or from studies performed, of which I've kept detailed notes.
Explaining what happens in the Redmax engine was difficult to put in a few sentences. Anything longer and I was affraid people would pass out from boredom. The picture doesn't do it for me either. I'll try to explain again.
Presently, when exaust blows out some fuel fumes from unburnt gas is mixed in. The strato engine sucks in clean air just as gas comes into the chamber. This clean air is between the fuel coming in and the exaust going out. The clean air prevents most of the fuel and exaust from coming into contact with each other. The clean air mixes with the exaust and blows out. The exaust is cleaner because it has mixed with the clean air pulled into the chamber and not with the raw fuel.
Rich- It won't be 10-15 years. You can stock up on more saws now if you want. I'm sure the manufacturers would love a mid-season spike in sales.
Guy- I'm on the same page.
Final thought. Cars are better now than they were 30 years ago and they'll be better 30 years from now. If we're alive 30 years from now, I hope we don't look bad on these days and say how bad it was, because I think things are great. If you want to buy some saws this year, go ahead, but I wouldn't panic. The competition amoung manufacturers is fierce. They know if they get it wrong and someone else gets it right, people will jump ship. They have to get it right the first time.
I want to keep this in perspective. It's not world peace we're talking about. It's a beautiful day here in Vermont. I'm going to enjoy it.
