FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF POORLY CHOSEN METAPHORS: The Volt Is A Moonshot? I Get It, It’s THAT Moonshot.

A few days ago, the director of GM’s moon program, Bob Lutz, was at it again with his favorite moon analogy. Except that this time, Lutz asks readers to remember the “45th anniversary of the Apollo 1 disaster that killed three of our hero astronauts.”

I am old enough to remember that Chaffee, White and Grissom were killed by an electrical fire. Maybe that moon analogy wasn’t so good.

Or maybe it was.

Ouch.
