Short but sweet!

Excellent little video.

I wonder what happened to Mr Bate ?
That was 41 years ago.
I presume he's no longer with us.
A nice man.

I wonder what happened to his bicycle.

Thanks again breal.

I don't know what happend to Mr. Bates lucidity. I'd like to know however, if anyone has put his inventions to good use

The assumption is, he was bought out or scared off by corporations that didn't want their profits tampered with, as these two inventions alone would do just that!!
