Thanks for the post and the link, turboshaft.

It's been a while since I've been exposed to such a load of tripe as that.
Still, it has to be taken within the context that it was assumedly written by a cadet PR hack, I suppose.
But .. where was the editor?
I have to agree, though, with FlightlessParrot's observation that it was little more than "mere puffery for GE".
Personally, I would have been a little less kind.

Hopefully, TurbineD and others will be along shortly to let us have their candid assessments of that article.
I suspect few will be complimentary.
