[Paleo-Future] Paleo-Future: The Inevitable Flying Car (USA Today): a REALLY energy-intensive gridlock generating a load of polluted turbulence at a constant 90-plus-dB. Then somebody screws up or gets a computer glitch, and falls onto the suburbs below (man, you ain't seen NIMBY).

[BlueOregon] BlueOregon: Yes on 49: Effort to fix 37 kicks off: Andy you're right in noting that you are "not a chicken little type freaked out that those big bad developers are going to turn Oregon into a strip mall.", but it does sound like you could be one of those joe sixpack doofuses that are happy to let developers do anything they want just as long as you got a dry place to sit and your television to watch.

['The Whip'] 'The Whip': CES 2008: HD DVD Dead; Downloads Are Alive!: In fact, this system enabled a download of Batman Begins along with the trailer for The Dark Night in full HD and multichannel sound, to be downloaded in 4 minutes.

Buses are for people who want to share transport, odours and other personal problems with other people.

[MenuPages Blog :: Philadelphia] MenuPages Blog :: Philadelphia: Fields In The Sky: But that could be ok, too.

[Reason Magazine - Hit & Run] Hit & Run > World's Cheapest Car Introduced - Reason Magazine: Consider the 244cc Honda Helix at $4,000, or the 50cc Honda Metropolitan (search ebay)for $1,500. Considering you would need at least two scooters to transport 2-4 people, and still not have much space for cargo, it looks like a wash to me.
