015: ”Start Your Engines”

Tales of the powerful force -- mechanical, conceptual, or otherwise -- that drives us. First, how Thomas Edison had his hand in the first ill-fated electric car of the early 1900s. Next, a stay-at-home, work-at-home dad who has a motor of his own. Finally, a family patriarch who on one afternoon literally became his grandson's motor.
