ok, so the two key areas that i've been focussed on - computing and
vehicles - the new completely incompetent president (voted in by the
american people) may have triggered the conditions i was anticipating,
for which the EOMA initiative is PRECISELY designed to migitate.

there is now some urgency to getting the EOMA68 designs out and into
mass-production.  it's not about what happens if china carries out
this first threat, it's what happens long-term, both to china and to
the rest of the world, if the U.S. President is stupid enough to think
that U.S.-China trade is not absolutely critical to both countries
(and to the rest of the world).

to put this into immediate perspective: the EOMA68 project items that
people have pledged for: those people in the USA may end up having to
pay that 45% tariff.
