New designs

Hello,
we have been away for some time, that is true. But, we have been busily working on our new vehicle designs, and we have got something exciting for you. Check this Venice Ambulance out. this rear view shows the propellers of the Venice Ambulance. Got to take your dog for a long walk? He could rest while you pull the trolley, which is nicely equipped with desert-proof wheels. Just in case.
This roofed vehicle can fly or drive, whicever you may find more suitable.
Check what is inside!
We also thought of a farm truck that can bring you positive up-ward views, for those gloomy days. The rear white wheel got a little bit chewed off by Stellino, a dog who lives in Sicily.

Unanswered questions of the month

Why are the (human) cells so small?
I really entered a crisis here. I tried to improvise an evolution-based explanation, involving the transition from procaryotes to eucaryotes (which does not quite answer why the procaryotes are small, anyway), but it did not sound convincing. Then I lamely tried to answer back with another question, asking why are humans the size they are, hinting a shy parallel. I was not any convincing. Another attempt was to suggest Lorenzo that if things have worked out well this way, mother nature has thought of not trying to change it, otherwise it may have risked to change for the worse. That our single cells are small enough not to be seen by our eyes, nor perceived in any way at the single cell level (otherwise we'd have an headache if only one cell were undergoing apoptosis?) has always fascinated me. But that Lorenzo, approaching 5 y.o., would ask such a question, was flattering. If you have the answer, please come forward!

Good morning!

Good morning! We had good 10 inches of snow last night and we are waching from the window the snow still falling. As soon as the snow fall ends, we are off sledging! Stay tuned. M&L

Giugiaro's envy

This creation has an incredible Cx. So incredible that we prefer not to publish it, for you'd be shocked.
