Heh. I particularly like the text blurb for
this entry. It’s really interesting how feasibility issues kill so many
“revolutionary” ideas. Flying cars were theoretically supposed to alleviate
congestion, but can you imagine what NYC would look like with all those cars
hurtling through the air without any clearly designated airlanes (which then
means that the only way to clear up congestion is to use multiple layers), and
what happens when you run out of gas?
And does
this guy buy his plutonium rods at the corner drugstore? What, does he think
it’s 1985 or something?
Oh, and what happens if one of the cars derails on
this beast?
Great stuff, man. The “flagship” car in particular looks like it’d be
interesting to model in LEGO bricks.
