David, that's like saying the same Thermos bottle that keeps things
warm will also keep them cold. How would it know which is which?

So you're saying I have to take the shaft out of the motor and
reverse it along with the blades? So like, is all the intelligence
built into the shaft and none in the blades? Boy, you learn

But I still wonder how, when I drive in Canada, my cruise control
knows to keep my speed at the chosen kph instead of mph.
