      I’m sure it will come. I wonder if they’ll just let anyone use a flying car though – with all the traffic accidents we have, they would be much worse in flying cars.

      Someone has just a few days ago made a hover board, and is hoping to sell them.

      Brilliant Julian – I’d love to hover-board my way to work in a morning!
      I think we definitely have the technology to be able to create flying cars.. but perhaps not in a way that everyone could afford one, or that would be safe. I think if we’ve been able to get a Space Shuttle into space many, many times then this stuff shouldn’t be too hard 😉
