My own opinion is that as technological innovations come along,
they get applied to _everything_, from the practical to the "patent
medicine". E.G., when the gasoline engine was invented, it was not
long before someone applied on to powering a wagon, a motorcycle, a
boat, a washing machine. I'm sure that some bright 'lad' even
considered mounting didloes to one. "Just a minute honey, I need to
prime the carburetor."

Like I said - guys will try to figure out how to use a new
technology to either make things go fast, or be used for sex. Tis the
nature of the beast.
