amazing. makes one marvel at technology. Hard to imagine just over hundred years ago pioneers thought they had all there was to get. What we have today they weren't even capable of imagining. And just as we think we are highly advanced i am sure in another hundred years we are going to look like primitive caveman.
(wanna go to england or anyplace on earth, walk through door and shazam there ya are). (and sleep not needed anymore, just take pill daily, instant rejuvenation)
