I WANT FLYING CARS!!! I was promised them at the 1964 World’s Fair in NY. GM’s “Ride of Tomorrow’’ said we’d have them by 1980! Screwed again!!

I’m still waiting for that little dorm-fridge size nuke plant that would sit in the basement and make all the electricity we’d ever need.
And for flying cars!

Compared to the world I was born into in 1964, the world has gone very much sci fi in some respects.
When I was a kid most people were still watching air broadcasted TV shows on black and white TVs. Party line telephones were still pretty common and you could still find the occasional outhouse on the farm.
On the other hand we watched the moon landing in black and white but have seen very little in manned spaceflight since. We see deeper into space with greater detail all the time but even robotic missions have been pretty anemic.

The first, predictably enough for the man who co-founded a branch of string theory, was Albert Einstein. “Second?” he said. “I used to watch ‘Flash Gordon.’ “
how about one of his mentors....who he worked for as a young physicist....Edward Teller??? BOOM!
