  21. Re:Impressive on Riding Shotgun With the Google Street View Beetle · · Score: 5, Funny

    if they rigged up the interior with a lot of HDTVs so that the walls seemed to be transparent to anyone inside

    Yes. If only there was some way we could make a solid, imovable, vertical surface transparent so that we could make parts of vehicles from it. We could then drive moving vehicles down the street without crashing and children could peer outside while travelling.

    The techology may even become so cheap so that we could use it housing so theat we dont have to live in darkness in our homes. We good look outside through the transparent 'walls' and see the sun.

    One day technology will find a way.
