Flying cars? Are you kidding? We would need full implementation of some
sort of collision-avoidance system - can you imagine if the drivers who
kill 50,000 people every year on the highways, which are well-defined
paths, were allowed to fly in three dimensions?

Well, maybe it would help with Darwinizing the idiots. ;-)

With sprockets. They were pre-Flubber.
