Re: The Singularity

Naps are interesting. Would completely revamp the layout of a car. Would you even need seats? Would they face forward? Could the cars be considerably wider? Kinda ceases to be a "car" anymore, more of a human transport mechanism.

Re: The Jurgen Klinsman Experience

Gotcha. I dont like that many sports seem to be changing to a calendar year. They need to have the dates coincide with the sport calendar, otherwise kids get the short/long end in all sports. Could give a crap what the rest of the world does in soccer.
