...and still no FLying Cars!

really folks I think things are moving 2 slowly, but perhaps it is the step back before the great leap forward

will we continue to have a society that funnels its best and brightest into litigation and finance? How long will we mindlessly ramble on the treadmill of modernity?

Lies or Truth

The future is NOW

There are flying cars around, such as the SkyCar (http://www.msnbc.com/news/574461.asp). However, these cars are more like airplanes as they require you to take-off and land at mini airports.

Who needs flying cars... we already skipped that stage, We don't even need to walk out of our house to buy stuff (online) and work (telecommunication) :P
