If large-format batteries, compact electrical motors, or vehicle computers are in short supply (and can be sold for a profit), I would expect such a parts shortage to be of short duration. Someone will step in to fill the need and make a buck. Hard to know exactly who, though.

Next Saturday I will take the CBEST (standardized test) in Sacramento, as a first steps towards teaching math and science at the primarly/secondary level in CA or NV. Having previously taught at the university level does not appear to count for much. Hide your kids!
