You have to go first. Are you unacquainted with the phrase "cause and effect"?

Pure lucky to have that straight line delivered to him belt high over the middle? P'raps. But where's the skill in hitting those where they ain't?

When the fuck are the religious right in America going to get it through their thick skulls that America is a secular nation made up of people from all religions and that none of those religions should be legislated onto others?

I've seen that one, but I really don't count it. It's more like a mini osprey and it's really loud. A flying car in my book is no louder than a regular car, and it can be driven equally on the ground or in the air. So you can drive, take off while driving in the air, and land on the ground and drive more at normal speeds, with normal maneuvering capability, until you get to your final destination.

Although, now that I think about it, in all the fake videos of flying cars, buildings in the future were so tall, they reached miles into the air so a car could just pull in to the garage at that level.

This means the car needs to be able to stop while in mid-air and hover (floating stop signs) and be able to pull into a garage and stop super high. It also needs to have the same passenger load, and cargo load ability as a normal car.

I just noticed something on that skycar website. Watch the videos of the car being tested for hovering. Everything looks normal until you see it drift to one side, and then you realize it's attached to a crane.

. . . by which time you'll be snorting at these young kids with their new-fangled flying cars while you're puttering around in your 2020 Nissan ("They knew how to make GOOD cars back then!!").
