Also, if the cars could fly, why bother with roads?
Flying mode probably uses up the plutonium faster.
The title is "Your Safety First" but there were no guardrails on the elevated roads.
Ah. Maybe the "roads" are only holographic virtual roads for visual reference, like painted white lines. The cars are always in flight, and under computer control.
The first thing I noted in the 1999 film was the lack of handrails on the cantilevered stairs leading up to the house's main entrance. Above a foot or two, I think building codes in most jurisdictions require them.
That poncho/hood thing the kid was wearing on the beach - do you suppose that was for protection from UV rays? Protection from toxic seagull poop? Flak armour?
"Here in the Future, no decisions shall be made without first rubbing our chins."
It seems that castrati singers are back in vogue too. Oh... I guess they nailed that one.
Don't worry about cable interconnection compatibility. Everything is hooked up through banana jacks.
Pity the testing terminal cannot also play the lecture file. The poor kid has to shlep all the way over to the other terminal to review the material.
No need to type or push a pointing device around. I guess the terminals have a telepathic interface that allow the user to reconfigure the half dozen unlabeled identical pushbuttons as required.
I can't wait to see the new SonyCokeFord 5-D handicam and playback unit. Maybe the 5th "dimension" is odor. Do you suppose it also records Duodecaphonic Surround Sound?
