but how much mileage is there in this flying car really?

― stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 9 June 2004 14:00 (twenty-two years ago)

Yes, but is an alien that looks like Jeff Goldblum going to be driving this car, and attempting to exchange DNA with me?

and that's what it would take to stop posting to ILX?

the mileage would admittedly be a problem. That, and landing it...

their was as i recal some talk of making a flying car as i recal about 5 years ago. It featured four downward facing ducted fans for lift and twom in the back for direction. the company never made a flying prototype and even if they had the rang was miserable and you would have reaquired a pilots liscense, so the term 'drive' is innapropriate.

No, what it takes to make me stop posting to ILX would be more server issues/site blocking like I was having a few weeks ago. I mean, if I were in a FLYING CAR and EXCHANGING DNA with a SEXY SPACE-NERD ALIEN SCIENTIST who looked like JEFF GOLDBLUM do you really think I'd be able to control myself from posting to ILX about it?
