nerdy Thursday: business in June

Back at the beginning of June, James had to make a business trip to Texas.  He departed Sunday, June 3, and arrived back in Ottawa late Thursday, June 7.  I'm sharing the following links to articles which provide synopses of the Driving Safety App:

I suspect initial responses to the implications of the application fall into two camps:  parents pumping their fists and exclaiming, "Yesssss!!!" while their teenagers throw their hands up in the air crying, "Noooooooooooooo!" 

In any case, James and colleagues had great fun putting a rental car through all its paces in the AT&T parking lot while testing the app.
