This wonderful black and white ad appeared in Time Magazine in spring of 1959. It features a happy mother cruising home in her futuristic flying car with her young daughter, groceries and family dog in tow. The caption reads..."Your Personal Flying Carpet." Step into it, press a button, and off you go to market, to a friend's home, or to your job. Take off and land anywhere; no parking problems. Plug in to any electric outlet for recharging. They're working on it!
Okay, so we're still a long way off from flying cars. And notice the creators didn't quite foresee child safety seat laws, either. But they did predict the inevitable shift from gasoline to electric vehicles. I'll give them one star for accuracy... five stars for the Jetson family appeal!
Cool blog, Mark.

Throughout this grand scheme of things you actually receive an A+ with regard to effort.
ReplyDeleteWhere exactly you confused everybody was
first on your particulars. As as
the maxim goes, details make or break the argument.
. And it couldn't be
much more true at this point. Having said that, allow me tell you just what
did do the job. Your writing
is really
powerful and that is probably the reason why
I am taking an effort to comment. I do not make it a regular habit of
doing that. 2nd, despite the fact that I can
certainly notice a jumps in reasoning you make, I am not
necessarily convinced of how you seem to
unite the ideas which in turn help to make
the actual final result. For the moment I shall
yield to your issue but hope in the near future you link the dots much better.
