I remember reading somewhere that 50 years ago, they thought we would be able to control the weather in 2000.

I was talking about this with my brother yesterday. How movies always have these incredible forecasts of the futere.
Remember Back to the Future 2? Flying cars, 3D movies, force field technoligy.

Minority Report is one of those movies. But that atmosphere there just makes me feel sick.

Why does EVERYTHING have to be new?? Nowadays we're still using things of 50 years old.... or things that really look like it.

+rep for the computer pic though.

They don't have flying cars... haha.. The physics of that are impossible at the moment, I mean for a car to fly it has to have a thrust weight ratio and It's just not economic for the world if we have flying cars. Until there is a better way to make them fly

Ace195 has left the building.....with elvis!!! wh000000!1!1!!
