  Chapter 5:   Not all of us move at the same pace. Some of us are too quick while some of us take our own time to get moving along. This is nature’s way of programming, which is necessary for us to survive.   Imagine us all programmed to move at the same speed (Top Gear), even though we all have different hearts (Engine). Not everyone is made that Torquey enough to break inertia, even in the highest gear. Some will stall, some will judder, some unique ones will get a move on. But in that process, the fuel consumed will make no sense to our environment, our society.   For our society to function, we required all its Cogs to move in a synchronous, harmonic way. Which means that we need different programming for every one of us, same way each and every Engine requires a transmission suited to its needs. That's how we come to different types of transmission available around us.   Manual transmissions come in two basic types:   ·   ...

  Selling anything in today’s time & age is not a problem. Be it some antiques owned by the family, some gadgets that are barely being used or something big like ‘a House’ or ‘a Car’. The Internet has made it a lot easy for sellers to get in touch with the buyers directly. Cars, for most people, are not just a means of transportation. There are emotions attached, especially when it is their first car. Therefore, in most cases, when selling a car, it is important for us to not only find a good home for it but also to price it correctly justifying all the work put on it during the years of ownership. It is easy to understand why many questions can run through the mind when people start considering selling their present car. But once the decision is made, the next step is to find a good buyer. During the negotiation round, one needs to make sure that he/she does not fall below the minimum price that was have set for their car. Which means that one has to put the “Negotiator ...

Chapter 4:   "Every day is a new day" a saying that makes sense, for us all. Each day we wake up, it requires us to exert different levels of energy, to go about the day. Each task has its own requirement and rewards. Each task takes something from us and puts it to use in our own realities. Each task has its own pace requirement, which is fulfilled by our bodies, by selecting 'the Right Gear at the Right Time'.   What it means when we say that, is that even though our body has the capability to go a lot higher, faster, if going that way unnecessarily, it will wear us out and make us use our energy in a very inefficient way.   Same goes with our Beloved Vehicles. What good is it, if we keep on doing burnouts every time we want to move on? We need some sort of modulation, some form of control between Axle/Differential and Engine.   That is where a transmission comes in play. By definition, a transmission is a machine in a power w...

Chapter 3:    As we talked about Wheels last time, the thought grew deeper, no matter how important invention the wheel was, alone it was useless. The wheel is more like the 'Jack of all trades and Master of None'. We have an existence of wheel since early stages of Stone Age, but the use of the wheel as a mode of transportation dates back to 4200-4000 BC.   One of the first applications of the wheel to appear was the Potter's wheel, used by prehistoric cultures to fabricate clay pots. The earliest type, known as "tournettes" or "slow wheels", were known in the Middle East by the 5th millennium BC. One of the earliest examples was discovered at Tepe Pardis, Iran, and dated to 5200–4700 BC. These were made of stone or clay and secured to the ground with a peg in the center but required significant effort to turn. True potter's wheels, which are freely-spinning and have a wheel and axle mechanism, were developed in Mesopotamia (Iraq) by 42...
