Back to the topic: do you think this development will lead to Fly-esque mutations?

Think of how many clumsy drivers we already have. Flying cars would NOT be a good thing.

When I was in grade school in the 80's, my teacher said there would be flying cars, and everything would be like the Jetsons by the year 2000. I'm still bitter to this day.
As a side point:
TheCroutonFuton, you're famous.
I googled "Bam Thwok", and looking through the links, I came to the FB.net site, and it had TheCroutonFuton quoted.

2. You must be wearing Zubaz, 'cause you're daring to be different.
3. I am a man with 3 fingers...but that doesn't count my index finger nor my thumb. |

I love it. What ever happened to us dreaming about the glorious future and all those impossible possibilities? Have we become jaded by technology already?

When I first read it I thought it said grad school. (That's where I was. Eek.) The rest was pretty funny in that context.

I lost it all back east. I sold my flying El Dorado.
I took three days to fly down one street.
Stopped at a prism in my flying car. I ask the next flying car how they are.
Someday I'll fly down the Pan-American Skyway.
Okay, I think that's enough for now.

Ha! Great site.
Yep, looking into the future through the goggles of 1984, that was my vision of 2000. Brainwashing 3rd grade teachers.

Oh no. I'm sure grad school-goers had a much more elaborate view of the year 2000.

Nice word, GypsyDeath.
I dreamed once of a printable/biodegradeable cell phone. Nanobots in ink, that when printed on a special paper, formed the necessary components. After a day, the bots degraded and the paper could be thrown away or dissolved.

can't get into anything these days. Always on the peripheral. Always terrified, exhausted, annoyed, pissed, anxious, out of it-out of the loop, out of my mind, out of time.
