2012's North American International Auto Show was different to 2011's in a very substantial way: Last year's was revolutionary, while this year's was mostly evolutionary.  This is no great surprise; the 2011 show came after three completely awful years for the auto industry as a whole. Strong signs of life returned with a vengeance for 2011, and we were delighted to report on American automakers' notable discovery of lighting technology and technique as much more than just a necessary expenditure to comply with prevailing regulations.
