Fast Cars

The next big thing? Fast cars in the sky. The first step may be "sky taxis". With all the major airlines about to go bust, maybe the sky taxi will be the only sky ride left.

There was a fascinatingly SciFi story linked to yesterday by Philip Chaston on Samizdata, and I see that this guy has already also noted Philip's posting. He links to these urgent audio-questions:

It's the year 2000. But where are the flying cars? I was promised flying cars. I don't see any flying cars. Why? Why? Why?

Well, here they come. Air taxis. They're still not really flying cars, hence the weasel word "taxi", but they do look like a step in the right direction.
