VIDEO: General Motors centennial celebration to be broadcast on GMNext
Tuesday is the 100th anniversary of the incorporation of General Motors by Billy Durant. In spite of the financial crisis swirling around all three of the Detroit-based automakers, GM intends to take that day to celebrate. Part of that celebration includes the official unveiling of the production design of the Chevy Volt and supposedly some other surprises. Sebastian and I will be on hand live in Detroit on Tuesday, but you can follow the events in a live webcast at GMNext.com. Several more on-line chats with GM executives will be taking place throughout the day including Jon Lauckner and Bob Lutz. Get a preview of what's coming in the video after the jump and stay tuned here on Tuesday morning as we bring you live photos of the Volt and more. [Source: General Motors]

The Volt, being the first incarnation of E-Flex architecture, is really GM's best shot for the next 100 years. The time of crisis presents an opportunity for a change. GM has strong roots in being an industry innovator, which is what they hopefully are getting back to. Good luck to you, GM. Make it work this time, for your own sake.

Yes, now for the aged baby-boomer generation: Televized Funerals.
I wonder if they will have a piper as in WKTEC?
