> kicking the can down the road When I was a kid, I remember my uncle introduced me to a guy he worked for who had made his initial fortune way back. It turns out that he bought a company that sold inner tubes for car tires, and when the automakers first moved to tubeless tires, the business owner wanted to sell. So, my uncle's friend bought him out cheap, and then targeted all the buyers of the new cars with tubeless tires. Apparently, the new car buyers didn't trust the tubeless tires yet, and the first place then went was to my uncle's friend to get tubes for their tubeless tires. The lesson here is that change is hard, and as humans, we aren't very good at it. My guess is that humanity will be kicking the can down the road for quite awhile.
