    I use a similar system. I have one Master Ring with a big ring on it, and each of the sets are on tiny carabiners. When I need that particular set, I attach it to the Master Ring. Otherwise, they hang on the wall by the door.

    I did RTFA. The article talks only about a case involving this product, what I meant was his history. Does he have a history of claiming the white whale? Simply put. He nor Anyone else can predict how the future will unfold. He probably honestly believed he could produce results inside his predicted timetable. Besides, its not like he took the money and disappeared. He's honestly trying to innovate.

    I really fail to see how this would be even slightly removed from what we have today in terms of safety. We see people plow into poles, fences, trees, hydrants and fenders all the time. Hell! I've even done the pole one in reverse! Yet we are all "trained & certified" to be safe drivers. What we need is a paradigm shift.

    The world isn't flat anymore, and we need to realize that.

    I said it earlier, but I'll say it again. This could revolutionize the way our world works.

    How is it a scam? He isn't even selling it yet! If he chooses to develop something and release details to build anticipation, he's doing EXACTLY what every single individual/corporation does to build hype before they release their product/service. What is he doing wrong? How many super-successful new gizmos have been delayed years or even decades before they were released to world-wide acclaim?

    my gut says it will be a deathtrap for any untrained pilots that dare to attempt to fly the contraption.

    As opposed to the rolling crash cages we own now? Seriously though...adding a third dimension to the commute could radically improve both travel time and safety. It simply needs to be regulated. With simple altitude and speed controls it would be equally as safe as todays tarmac. Safer even, the only direction you go in a crash is down. With the adoption of this technology, they will develop adequate safety devices as well.

    Hopefully there is no one below you...

    With proper operator training it could be revolutionary.
