I was pleasantly surprised to watch this past Sunday's 60 MINUTES and see that the concept of skeuomorph was brought up by General Motors' Vice Chairman Robert Lutz. He was discussing how the Volt (a new electric car) would be quiet so they would develop audio CDs with the engine sounds of various makes and models for anyone who would miss the sound of engines revving. I love seeing the concept in action for words I've just learned. Thank you!
