The only thing I don't like about this, is when the ad calls her by name & when she goes to the store.  It went from awesome, to kind of wired/scary at that point.

She would probably have one of those ID chips embedded in her arm to let the store computer recognize her.

I though the car was cool as hell. The refrigerator pictures reminded me of ole Harry Potter for some reason...lol

With the current state of the worlds economy and all the money and work it would take to realize the dream in this video; it will probably take a good 50 to 100 years to get close to the dream.

I could see the car technology being implemented in the next five years. Some of that stuff is already being used in newer cars (Bluetooth, Satnav), and the technology for the dimming sunroof is already being used in the form of dimmable rearview mirrors.

I agree with the auto technology. But all the other items, nah.

Crap most places can't afford to fix bloody potholes and install the old style traffic signs that have been around for a good 60 years. Let alone those electronic signs.

People need jobs to pay for all the other stuff and their taxable income would cover the the infrastructure. That's if the powers to be stop fund research on the love life of the frigging aardvark or some other stupid pet project. If the monies were used to help employ the masses, then we might actually have a chance at these types of dreams.

Well crap, that turn into a mini rant....oops... Embarrassed.....I just don't care how animals, insects, birds or lizards breed. I'm more concerned with humans and being able to feed, cloth and educate them. I'm quite sure the little critters could careless how we breed....lmao

If anyone is interested - "The music in Corning’s “A Day Made of Glass” video. The video uses a variation of the "Golden Sky” music track by Jan Cyrka and Toby Bricheno. " Undecided

Move over Rom, I'm in the same boat with you. And if by some miracle we did live long enough, I would not be able to afford any of it.

If you now by some shares of the companies making the window cleaning sprays you will need to keep all the glass stuff clean, you may just be able to afford it.  Wink Cheesy
