Take a look at this helicopter.  It's practically something you can shove inside your suitcase after you fly yourself to work.  I mean, it literally only takes 10 minutes unfold to it.<BR /><BR />The beautiful thing about it is that it ran on car fuel.  Gassing this baby would probably take minimal effort.  Too bad it was never actually flown — there wasn't a rotary piston engine found for it.<BR /><BR />Still, why is it that I get the feeling that if this helicopter were ever to be taken seriously, it would revolutionize the world of transportation?  Just a feeling, like I said.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/92BC6367-BA62-4390-8E68-8E347B42AA47/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
