Techcrunch is usually a reputable source as far as I know.

No references - On the car story, I read a LOT of stuff, and don't have any
easy way to find / refer back to stories I may have seen months or more ago...
I figure if people are really interested there are these amazing things called
search engines.... For the wheelchair programming question, see countless
threads discussing same on sites like WheelChairDriver.com....

Dear ART,
Do you have some references for your examples? I always try to include full
references to stories when I talk to people. Thanks!
