In David Neeleman's apology letter to JetBlues Customers he uses the expressed transition (Winterowd 44) and. He uses it between talking about the movement of aircraft then to "more importantly" (Neeleman) the stranded pilots and crew members. This transition of "and, more importantly," sets up that the real problem was not that planes could not get around but that JetBlue's infrastructure to deal with large scale storms and delays was flawed.
My idea for the final project is looking at what's possibly going to happen to the car industry as stricter mpg averages and other emissions regulations are put on the books. This issue is important because the US auto industry is very important to the economy, especially here in the Midwest. I intend to look back at the last big transition in the auto industry which was safety. Car manufactures had to really rethink things to make the cars as light and as safe, in compliance with the governments new stricter regulations of the late 60's through the mid 90's. I will research more about what those regulations were about, what prompted them and how the car companies tried to deal with them. This will be my research form. My real form will possibly be a editorial in an automobile magazine such as Car and Driver It will look back fondly on how cars used to be, and then talk about how much improved they are today and that the car must continue to evolve and that car enthusiasts need to lead the way.
I'm not sure if this will be my real form or exactly the direction I want to go but something close to it. Any suggestions?

Is there a conflict level that could affect how the regulations will affect both buyers and the industry? I think that while you are analyzing the actual industry, you shouldn't forget about who drives that industry: the buyers, especially since your real form will be in a magazine directed towards people who purchase vehicles. I really like your idea for the project!!
