Over the past few weeks I started to notice that the "e" is back in the air. More and more the small "e"
is used to indicate new developments, something different from the past.
It seems we are reliving the experience of 1998 and beyond, when it all started with e-commerce, soon follwed
by an endless number of other "e" things.
The ultimate today: the e-Solex. Whereas originally the e stood for electronic (eg e-commerce),
it now means electrical (engine) in the context of a Solex. Or may be it is some reference to ecologic as there are folks
that thinks electrical propagation is environment friendly (rather dubious if you take the full cycle including generation
into account).
Anycase, "e" definitely had its peak of inflated expectations, may be this is the onset of enlightment
towards profitability.
