My Flying Car
When I was a kid, I was sure that my 21st Century self would have a flying car.
It didn't really work out.

when i was a kid i was sure my 21st Century self would have blue hair and wear orthopaedic shoes. do crocs count? sometimes it's good that things don't really work out.
as for blogging, it's a really good thing for the rest of us that you like it and do it.
thanks.

Very cool thing... but in 2003, the SEC sued Moller for civil fraud for making unsubstantiated claims about the performance of the Skycar. Moller settled by agreeing to a LIFETIME! injunction and paying $50,000. In the words of the SEC complaint, "As of late 2002, MI's approximately 40 years' of development has resulted in a prototype Skycar capable of hovering about fifteen feet above the ground. Maybe the "insurance company required" cable provides electric power, because the device is has no battery or alternator
to bad to bad... but still, cool movie and idea!
Somehow my comment was lost, but if you wanna have some nice background info. Do a Google on this think or double click the YouTube vid.
Nice idea tough not perfectly worked out ;-)
