Wonder how this came up today, these guys have been around since 2008, or a year before I started my three wheeler "car" company. I am surprised to see they have one that runs, but…

Not much of a story, we posted it around 3pm and had the top spot for a few hours. It was exhilarating! There are quite a few proximity apps, but we definitely don't want to be cre…
