The quiet secret is we actually liked our fellow Illinois construction/implement company and I had the privilege of talking to their IT organization on several occasions. You just won’t see me wearing that green shade ha.

I used to see the big tractors along the 401 Highway when we drove to my grandmother’s house in Toronto.

You are very welcome RJ, I find it fascinating how people invent things, especially motors. How woman used to do laundry by hand, scrubbing cloths on those wash boards. Then someone came up with a machine that made their lives so much easier.

One always wonders why so many simply keep using what they have or doing what everyone else does until someone decides to make improvements with new knowledge and new and better inventions and then everyone eventually catches up. This was the mark of a society on the rise. Thanks Sandra

I bet the newer ones don’t. They are so quiet. Mostly computerized now. Like cars.

I wonder if today’s John Deere tractors still have that distinctive sound. We use to call those green tractors, ‘Popping Johnies’.
